Profile

Keith Robinson is the global head of the trusts and private wealth practice at Carey Olsen and head of the dispute resolution and trusts and private wealth practice of Carey Olsen Bermuda. With more than 20 years' experience in a wide range of commercial litigation, Keith is highly recognised by publications, peers and clients; being described as "extremely well respected globally" and someone who "knows how to handle big offshore disputes".



Often engaged by clients for "significantly challenging" litigation and high value civil matters where his "wider experience and knowledge gives him a very good forensic edge", Keith's dispute resolution practice ranges from corporate and commercial disputes, arbitration, breach of contract and public law to restructuring and insolvency matters.



His restructuring and insolvency expertise includes advising on a number of cross-border insolvencies, asset recovery/tracing cases and receiverships, as well as schemes of arrangement. He regularly advises liquidators and receivers, the boards of distressed entities, investors and unsecured creditors in relation to both contentious and non-contentious insolvency issues. 



In addition, he also has expertise in high-value trust litigation and court approved trust restructurings, often with a multi-jurisdictional element.



Keith represents global businesses, trustees, beneficiaries, settlors and protectors in a wide range of contentious and non-contentious cases before the Supreme Court of Bermuda, drawing on his extensive advocacy experience. Keith has been involved in many of the major insolvency and trust cases in Bermuda in recent years and has written widely and spoken internationally on Bermuda law.
