About
简历
Richard is a partner practising BVI law from Carey Olsen’s London office. Richard's practise encompasses all aspects of BVI commercial disputes, but with a focus on insolvency, fraud and asset recovery, shareholder disputes and contentious trust matters. Richard is also able to advise clients facing investigations by the BVI's International Tax Authority and other contentious regulatory matters.
Richard has particular experience of cases which raise complex jurisdictional issues and where proceedings are on foot in several jurisdictions. He regularly obtains interlocutory relief such as freezing injunctions, and also assists clients in resisting and overturning such orders.
Richard's location in London enables him to advise clients in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa from a convenient time zone, and he works closely with the BVI-based litigation team to provide a seamless service to clients.
Richard has a track record of successfully representing clients before the BVI Commercial Court and the Eastern Caribbean Court of Appeal, and where appropriate negotiating favourable settlements to avoid litigation.
Career
Richard started his career with Hogan Lovells in London, where he practised for eight years prior to moving to the BVI in 2013. Richard gained his higher rights of audience in the English Courts in 2010 and was admitted as a solicitor advocate in the BVI in 2013. Between 2015 and 2017, Richard worked for Carey Olsen in Jersey. Richard was admitted as a registered associate of the Bermuda bar in 2023.
He is a member of R3, INSOL and the Commercial Fraud Lawyers' Association. Richard is listed in Who's Who Legal for Asset Recovery.
