Milaun completed both the Graduate Diploma of Law and the Legal Practice Course with Master of Laws in Professional Legal Practice at The University of Law. Prior to that, she obtained a Bachelor of Commerce from Ryerson University, majoring in Law and Business with a minor in Economics. Milaun received the Appleby Legal Education Scholarship in 2021 and interned with the firm in 2021 and 2022.
Milaun began her pupillage with Appleby in September 2023. In her first-year of the programme she completed three, four-month seats, rotating from the Dispute Resolution, Insurance and Corporate departments, where she was mentored by Khiyara Krige (Counsel), Matthew Carr (Partner) and Jane Walker (Senior Associate), respectively.
Milaun is currently in her second year of Appleby’s legal trainee programme. She recently began her final seat, which is 12-months, in the Insurance department under the continued mentorship of Matthew Carr.
“I am deeply honored to have been admitted as the newest member of the Bermuda Bar. I extend my sincere gratitude to Appleby for providing me with the opportunity to achieve this significant milestone. It is a privilege to work alongside such brilliant and forward-thinking legal professionals who continually inspire and challenge me. I look forward to the promising path ahead in my legal career,” shared Milaun.
Matthew Carr said, “Milaun has become a valued member of the Insurance team in a short time. Her consistent, calm and dedicated approach to tasks during her training have been noticed and will position her well to progress in the coming months and years. Milaun has focused a significant portion of her time with the Insurance team on new and emerging insurance regulation, an area that is of particular interest to our clients in our growing regulatory practice area. Milaun has shown that she is capable of quickly assimilating information and applying this to an array of client fact patterns. I look forward to seeing Milaun develop her professional profile further whilst further broadening her legal experience and skillset.”
John Wasty, who is Head of Appleby’s Dispute Resolution practice in Bermuda, commented, “Milaun is a wonderful addition to the Appleby team and broader legal community. Her steadfast dedication and eagerness to learn, showcased during her time in the Dispute Resolution department, will undoubtedly serve as a solid foundation for a successful career in this dynamic profession. I congratulate Milaun on her call to the Bermuda Bar and look forward to watching her continued development at Appleby. ”
