Bedell Cristin lawyer named in UK top young professionals’ list

Sonia Shah, Senior Associate at Bedell Cristin in Jersey, has been recognised as one of the 2020 eprivateclient Top 35 under 35 in the UK and Crown Dependencies.

The list identifies and recognises the rising stars of the private client community. It is compiled on an annual basis through a nomination and rigorous judging process, which considers the strength of individuals' achievements over the past 12 months and their career progression. Sonia was also included in the Channel Islands' version earlier this year.

Sonia has established a strong reputation for her commercial and contentious trusts litigation work, regularly assisting with complex applications and trial work before the Royal Court and Court of Appeal in Jersey. She works across numerous cases and advises leading onshore law firms, fiduciaries and high net worth individuals on trust, commercial, insolvency and regulatory matters and has also acted for trustees and beneficiaries internationally.

“Sonia embodies Bedell Cristin's commitment to strong client service and continues to deliver exceptional work on a daily basis,” said Tim Pearce, Global Managing Partner of Bedell Cristin.

“We’re proud of her recognition as a top young professional by eprivateclient.”
