Double gold for Collas Crill's International Private Client and Trusts team

Collas Crill Jersey's
International Private Client and Trusts (IPCT) team has achieved a
double gold with two of its lawyers receiving the highest ranking in
their nominated categories at Citywealth's future leader awards.
Kellyann Ozouf, Partner and head
of the Jersey IPCT team was named as 'Lawyer of the Year – IFC –
Partner' while Associate Bonnie McPartland was named 'Lawyer of the
Year – IFC – Associate'.
The awards, now in their fifth
year, aim to champion young professionals in the wealth sector and
highlight the top leaders under 40. The awards are decided by an
expert panel, with public voting contributing to ten per cent of the
final decisions.
The second time Kellyann has won
gold in this category, she is also nominated for three of the
Citywealth's Powerwomen Awards 2020.
Forming part of a nine-strong
team in Jersey, Kellyann and Bonnie often work together on client
matters and recently collaborated with Jersey Finance to contribute
to their 'Put Simply' series, as the expert advisors for the island's
Trust regime.
Group Managing Partner, Jason
Romer said: 'With both Kellyann and Bonnie achieving gold at the
awards, the IPCT team must be hugely proud of their achievements.
'Private Client and Trusts is a
thriving area of work for us across our jurisdictions; in the last 18
months we have welcomed Tom Mylott, Andrew Peedom and Sally Peedom to
the Cayman team. More recently Laura Perkins has joined Kellyann's
team in Jersey, and we have plans to develop our offering in the
Guernsey office too.
'Many congratulations to
Kellyann and Bonnie for this well deserved recognition.'
Kellyann added: 'I'm thrilled
that Bonnie and I have both been recognised in the top categories and
am very grateful to all who voted for us.
'It is lovely to be finishing
off what has been a very successful year for the team with this
double achievement.'
The team was listed in Legal
500's tier 2 and Band 3 in the Chambers and Partners UK 2020
rankings, with Kellyann individually recognised as a 'leading
individual'.
