Bio

Mike joined Appleby as a Senior Associate in September 2025.

Mike qualified in London as an English solicitor with a leading City firm before moving offshore to Jersey and re-qualifying as an Advocate of the Royal Court where he specialised in dispute resolution with an emphasis on trust related matters as well as corporate and regulatory disputes, appearing for two of the plaintiffs in one of Jersey’s longest ever trials where members of a wealthy Saudi Arabian family sued Jersey trustees for breach of trust. He has extensive experience in trust litigation and has also acted as a director of a Jersey-regulated trust company, advising international high-net worth families.

He was called to the Bermuda Bar in 2023 and acted as part of a team advising on the largest in value case ever to come before the Bermudian courts which is also believed to be one of the most valuable private wealth cases ever tried anywhere in the world.
