Alexander Hawkins has joined Bedell Cristin as the firm’s new Head of International Private Client in Guernsey.
Alexander (pictured) – who is recognised by both Chambers High Net Worth and Legal 500 for the quality of his work – has joined the firm to lead the Guernsey team, which will work alongside the existing private client practices focusing on BVI, Cayman Islands and Jersey law.
He is well-known in the Guernsey market, having practised with a competitor firm since 2020, and has completed his Guernsey law exams and is due to be sworn as a Guernsey Advocate shortly.
Nancy Chien – Co-Global Managing Partner at Bedell Cristin, and the firm’s head of International Private Client – said: “We are delighted to have Alexander join the firm and strengthen our Guernsey private client offering.
“His background both onshore and offshore, and his connections in the London, Switzerland and local market in Guernsey, make him the perfect person to spearhead our Guernsey practice.”
Alasdair Davidson, the head of Bedell’s Guernsey office, added: “This is a very exciting development as we mark our 20th anniversary in the jurisdiction.
“We look forward to supporting Alexander to hit the ground running, particularly in the local market where we see so much opportunity.”
