06 Apr 2018

Peer review:

I have known Bernadette since I started working in Cayman in 2010. During that period I have worked on matters with Bernadette involving Cayman trust issues. I have found her approach to be professional and diligent. I would also add that she has a keen attention to detail and is knowledgeable on Cayman case law. The work that I have been involved in with Bernadette has been contentious trust work but I know that her practice also involves non-contentious trust work. I appreciate her calm and knowledgeable work ethic and I would recommend her as a leading legal adviser in the Cayman trusts industry.
