Profile
Keith is a partner in the Trusts & Private Wealth group.
Keith regularly advises a mix of global and institutional trustees, family offices and high net worth private clients on commercial and private trusts, foundations, charitable and not-for-profit organisations, succession, pension and estate planning issues as well as on associated regulatory and compliance matters.
Keith has practised Jersey law since 1994. Initially he had a broad common law practice and following his call to the Bar in Jersey he represented several major institutions in a variety of contentious and non-contentious matters before the Royal Court of Jersey.
Between 2004 and 2007 he acted as a director of a Jersey based trust company business and had primary responsibility for the administration of a sizable family office structure during that period.
He has written for several journals and frequently speaks at seminars and conferences on trust law and private client matters.
