Bermudian lawyer Yan-Xia Rogers returns home to join Carey Olsen

Yan-Xia will specialise in corporate and commercial law, advising clients on a range of cross-border transactions, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate governance matters.

Having moved to London in 2020, Yan-Xia worked for a year as a paralegal at Broadgate Legal before training as a solicitor at Kennedys Law LLP in London, with a focus on regulatory, corporate, product liability law and insurance litigation. Yan-Xia was admitted to practice law in England and Wales in 2023, after obtaining her LLM Legal Practice and her LLB in Law from respected UK universities.

Yan-Xia said: "I am very grateful for this opportunity to continue developing the skills I have learnt in London within Carey Olsen's leading corporate practice in Bermuda. Not only is it exciting to return home, but I look forward to working alongside my new team and to practising law in a new jurisdiction."

Carey Olsen Bermuda managing partner, Michael Hanson JP, said: "We are delighted to welcome Yan-Xia back to Bermuda and to our growing corporate team. Persuading bright Bermudian lawyers to return home is an integral part of our local market strategy, and Yan-Xia follows in the footsteps of the dozen or so Bermudians that have come back to develop their talents at Carey Olsen. Yan-Xia's strong academic record and range of legal experience is impressive at this early stage in her career, and I have no doubt that she will become a real asset to the team."
