Sam, who qualified as a Jersey Advocate in 2012, has joined the team led by partners Robert Gardner, Edward Drummond, Robert Christie and Sonia Shah, which is ranked in the highest tier by both Chambers & Partners and Legal 500.
Sam advises primarily Jersey based clients on a broad range of disputes, including breach of trust claims, applications for court blessing and rectification, and complex commercial litigation.
She has been involved in a number of high profile and complex trust matters concerning high net worth individuals, and advises on regulatory issues, including matters relating to sanctions, TIEAs and AML/CFT compliance.
Robert Gardner, who leads the team, said: "We are delighted to welcome Sam on board – she has a lot of experience in the Jersey market, advising on the broad range of trusts disputes and commercial litigation that we specialise in.
"The team remains busy and we continue to focus on growth, and adding to the recruitment that we have seen over the past few years."
Sam moved offshore shortly after completing the Bar Course in England in 2007 and practised with two other leading Jersey law firms before joining Bedell Cristin.
She also undertook a secondment to the Guernsey office of one of her previous firms to support the team working on a complex, high value trusts dispute.
