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.”
