Bedell Cristin’s Guernsey dispute resolution team has been strengthened with the arrival of associate Rebekah Johnston.
Rebekah (pictured), who qualified as an English Solicitor last year, has spent the past seven years as a paralegal, trainee and associate with another leading litigation practice in the Island.
She joins the team headed by partners Alasdair Davidson, Jon Barclay and Robert Fullman.
Rebekah’s arrival follows the recruitment of Guernsey-law focused counsel Emma Hill at the end of last year, as the firm continues to invest in its global dispute resolution practice group – that investment has also seen the arrivals of counsel Tom Wright in the Cayman Islands, and senior associate Dominic Corsini-Week and associates Catarina Basilio and Natasha Woodhouse in Jersey.
Alasdair – who recently retained his Leading Partner ranking in the latest Legal 500 UK guide – said: “We are delighted to welcome Rebekah to our disputes team here in our Guernsey office – she joins a Guernsey team located strategically in both our office here in St Peter Port and also in London providing the cover in the locations that our clients need.
“We continue to see growth in the number and value of instructions coming into the team across the full range of trusts disputes, commercial litigation, restructuring and debt work and regulatory matters, and we look forward to Rebekah continuing to build and progress her career with us.”
