Bedell Cristin has strengthened its highly rated corporate and banking team through a senior appointment in Guernsey.

Ann Halliday, an experienced lawyer in the offshore market and a qualified banker, has been appointed as a senior associate. She was most recently employed at a senior position at a large law firm in Guernsey and specialises in legal advice for the banking, funds and corporate sector. She entered the legal profession in 1995 and has worked both in-house and in general practice, focusing primarily on banking and corporate law. Prior to that, she had a career in financial services including a significant period in management roles at Barclays Bank in the UK.  

Bedell Cristin managing partner in Guernsey, Mark Helyar, said:

‘We are delighted to welcome Ann who brings wide ranging experience to our banking and corporate team following an extensive career in financial services and subsequently in commercial law both in the UK and offshore. She adds further strength in depth to our pan-island capabilities.’

Bedell Cristin’s banking and corporate teams are consistently recognised by leading directories as being among the strongest in the offshore marketplace, and the firm has been judged ‘offshore law firm of the year’ in the UK Captive Insurance Awards for three consecutive years.
