He is one of four of Ogier’s private client specialists across Cayman, Guernsey and Jersey recognised in Who’s Who Legal: Private Client 2015.

Steve, who is based in Jersey and specialises in trust and fiduciary structures and is praised for his ‘exceptional’ expertise in the field, is named as one of the top five offshore advisers in its league table of most highly regarded individuals.

Sally Edwards, the head of Ogier’s private client and trusts team, is described as ’fantastic’.

Guernsey-based Marcus Leese wins praise for his ‘careful’ handling of complex private client cases.

Rachael Reynolds in the Cayman Islands gains recognition for the ‘unrivalled service’ she offers clients, and focuses her practice on international trust disputes.

Sally Edwards said: “Following our recent award win, which reflected the international strength of Ogier’s private client specialists, this is very welcome and positive recognition of both the skills and approach of our senior team and those who support us.”

The annual guide lists 492 lawyers worldwide who are considered leaders in the field.
