Baker & Partners has launched Jersey’s first practitioner text dedicated exclusively to trust litigation in Jersey’s courts.

Litigating Trust Disputes in Jersey; Law, Proceedure & Remedies is targeted at trust professionals and legal practitioners with clients exposed to a Jersey trust structure working with or against trustees or beneficiaries and international practitioners seeking information about Jersey trusts in foreign proceedings or wishing to recover or enforce against trust assets in Jersey.

The book brings together detailed analysis of Jersey’s trust law, guidance on civil procedure and litigation remedies.

The text was authored by Senior Associate, James Sheedy who has continued the firm’s predilection for achieving dual-qualification as an English barrister and Jersey advocate. Senior Partner Stephen Baker also acted as Consultant Editor of the text.

William Bailhache, Bailiff of Jersey, who wrote the book’s foreword, commented: “It is fundamentally important for Jersey law and cases to be brought together in a comprehensive way, and the extensive use of footnotes in Litigating Trust Disputes in Jersey makes it easy to check the source material for authenticating the summary that the book contains.”

Litigating Trust Disputes in Jersey: Law, Procedure & Remedies  is available from today, 9 February 2017.
