About Bedell Cristin

Since 1939, clients have come to us for straight-talking legal advice. Today you'll find the same sound judgement and pragmatism across our offices in the BVI, Cayman Islands, Guernsey, Jersey, London, and Singapore. Our smart, approachable teams design informed, and inventive legal solutions. The expertise you expect, offered with a refreshing simplicity and clarity. We also invest in mutually committed relationships with our clients as we believe strong foundations make for smoother roads. Over the years, we've learned the importance of these principles, while playing our part in defining the modern offshore legal industry. Our founder, George Bedell, helped establish Jersey's progressive tax system. And the island's first female advocate, Anita Regal, hailed from Bedell Cristin. We are proud of where we have come from - and we value what we have learned along the way.
