Tom advises on a broad range of commercial and private trust matters, including in connection with the establishment and administration of investment funds structured as unit trusts, pension trusts, and employee benefit trusts. Tom regularly advises family offices, charitable organisations, trustees and high net worth individuals on complex trust structures for wealth and estate planning, as well as the use of private trust companies, STAR Trusts and Foundation Companies. Tom has represented private and institutional clients in both non-contentious and contentious international trust and private client work, including in relation to applications for directions, mistake, as well as grants of probate and letters of administration, and resealing foreign grants.

Tom qualified as an attorney at one of London's "magic circle" firms in 2002 and managed a wealth planning team before his move to the Cayman Islands in 2010.

Building on his experience of running a trust company for the three years that followed, Tom then joined the firm to lead the Cayman Islands international trust and private client team.
