Co-worker review:

Sally's unflappable style, matched with her encyclopedic knowledge make her a pleasure to work with.

05 Feb 2021

Peer review:

Sally combines technical excellence with being very pleasant to work with. I am constantly impressed with her in-depth knowledge of trust law and watertight drafting.

Institutional client review:

Sally is an exceptional private client lawyer and my go-to person in terms of Jersey law Trust issues. Always calm and helpful, her knowledge and level of recall are fantastic. She is supported by a great team and I am impressed by the way she will provide her initial thoughts when asked a difficult question rather than saying she will look into the matter. Nothing phases Sally and it is a pleasure to work with her.

She is also very responsive and dedicated to providing the highest level of client service and supporting her team.

Restructuring ultra-high net worth family wealth

Advising on restructure of ultra-high net worth family wealth held partly in trust and partly individually. The restructure was very complex and included updating and harmonising existing trust deeds and creating a new purpose trust and private trust company and other corporate structure to carry out philanthropic activities for the family going forwards. The matter was cross jurisdictional and included consideration of issues relating to different groups of beneficiaries and excluded persons and mechanisms to transfer funds out of existing personal ownership into trust. The restructure involved innovative drafting to attain the required result from a succession perspective but providing reassurance to the family that they retained an element of control.

Advising on trusts being moved from Cayman to Jersey

Advising on series of trusts being moved from Cayman to Jersey where there was argument about the extent of the Settlor's reserved powers and therefore the validity of the trusts.  These trusts were very high value and the whole structure needed resettling and amending.
