Cayman: Walkers admits new Caymanian attorney

Grand Cayman, 15 November 2019
Walkers
is pleased to announce that Zoë Nolan has completed her legal
training and was called to the Cayman Islands Bar on 13 November
2019. The application was moved by Walkers' Partner Colette Wilkins
before the Hon. Justice Kawaley, at the Grand Court in the Cayman
Islands.
Zoë
grew up in the Cayman Islands and was a recipient of the 2013 Walkers
Legal Scholarship. In 2016, she completed her undergraduate degree in
Law and Sociology at the University of Cardiff in the United Kingdom
and graduated with Upper Second Class Honours. Zoë then
undertook and completed her LPC LLM in Law and Business at the
University of Law (Moorgate) a year later.
During
her time as a student, Zoë participated in three legal internships
with Walkers, starting in 2014, and was then articled to Rob Jackson,
a Partner in Walkers' Finance and Corporate Group, in 2018. In
addition, Zoë received a scholarship from South Square Chambers and
the Recovery and Insolvency Specialists Association, which provided
her the opportunity to complete the South Square Chambers Pupillage
in London between May - August 2019.
Zoë
will take a place in Walkers' Insolvency & Dispute Resolution
Group as an associate.
Zoë
stated: "Throughout my internships and subsequently my
Articles, Walkers invariably provided me with an exemplary learning
environment which inspires ambition, innovative thinking and a strong
sense of self. I am delighted to be joining Walkers' Insolvency and
Dispute Resolution team and to continue working alongside such
passionate and personable individuals, who invest their time and
energy into ensuring you accomplish your goals."
Walkers'
Partner and Chair of the Trainee Committee, Caroline Heal commented:
"We would like to congratulate Zoë on her admission to the
Cayman Islands Bar. The process of identifying the brightest
Caymanian candidates and training them through our rigorous programme
is important to Walkers. It has been extremely rewarding for us to
see Zoë develop into her new career as an attorney at law."
