Craig Swart & Mathew Cook Mourant du Feu

Mourant du Feu & Jeune has promoted Mathew Cook and Craig Swart, to the position of senior associate.

Mathew advises local institutions on all areas of commercial disputes and specialises in regulatory work,  and anti-money laundering laws, regulations and practice.

Beverley Lacey, partner and head of the litigation practice area, comments: “Mathew’s promotion is acknowledgement of the high regard in which he is held by our clients and also the partners of the firm.”

Craig works in the trusts practice area in Jersey, dealing with all areas of non-contentious trust law and transactional work involving trusts.

Giles Corbin, partner and head of the trusts team, says: “Guernsey and Cayman are regularly asked to act within tight timescales, but to be able to step into the shoes of the client and quickly form and communicate a commercial view on a client’s position. Craig showcases all these abilities.”
