Band 1

Andrew Willins KC leads Appleby's BVI litigation team and commands great respect within the offshore legal community. His activity spans company disputes, trust disputes and insolvency-related litigation, in addition to assisting with the enforcement of overseas judgments. He is also regularly called upon to act as an expert witness.

I rate Andrew as one of the top three litigators in the BVI. He's really excellent. If there's anything he doesn't know, it's probably not worth knowing.

Andrew is a very sensible, sophisticated operator and he has a good team around him.

Andrew has one of the best reputations on the island.

Andrew is absolutely stellar; he is the top lawyer on the island.

Andrew is my go-to person in the BVI. He is top class and great to work with.
