Wills specialist sworn in as a Jersey solicitor

Wednesday 07 January 2015


Collas Crill's wills and succession specialist Julie Harrigan has been sworn in as a Jersey Solicitor.

She becomes the firm's only female Jersey solicitor and, as well as being promoted to associate at the firm, has been invited to be the local Adjunct for the Testate and Intestate Succession paper at the Institute of Law.

Ms Harrigan joined Collas Crill in 2008 as a legal assistant with the wills and estates team. Shehas a BA in law and history and an LLB from the National University of Ireland, Galway. She specialises in all aspects of wills and succession.

Department head Advocate Paul Harben said: "Julie joined us as a trainee and was thrown in the deep end. She managed to swim to the surface very quickly and has since proven to be a fabulous asset of the firm combining fantastic work ethic with studying for and passing the Jersey Law exams. It is lovely to watch a home grown talent progress through the ranks to become a key element of a going-places department."
