Relocating to Guernsey was a dream move for Tim Clipstone. With
Ogier’s continued growth locally and abroad, the Group
Partner has found the firm's people-focused culture, the
Island's high quality of regulation, and Guernsey's great
outdoors a perfect fit for this chapter in his life. Tim speaks to
Laura Clayton about his career journey and how he has settled into
his new Guernsey life.
Tim, who grew up in Hampshire and started his career working in
London as a corporate lawyer, spent more than a decade in the
Caribbean as a funds lawyer before moving back across the Atlantic.
That time included four years in the BVI before a move to the
Cayman Islands to open a new office for a previous firm, and
it also happened to coincide with the global financial crisis of
2008. That might not sound like great timing for an investment
funds lawyer, but he says it worked well.
