ASW appoints captives expert as partner

ASW Law Limited has promoted Kim Willey (pictured) to partner.

Willey, who has been with the Bermuda-based law firm since 2011, has significant experience in the re/insurance and financial services sectors, advising both captive and commercial reinsurance.

She is recommended as a leading expert in insurance and reinsurance by Who’s Who Legal and regularly presents at Bermuda industry events, including  the Bermuda Captive Conference.

Before joining ASW, Willey was a senior associate with the corporate law group at Fraser Milner Casgrain, where she focussed on the mining and oil and gas sectors.

“Thrilled to ‘level up’ with the corporate team at ASW Law Limited,” Willey wrote in an update on the promotion.

She’s joined by another new partner in Hanno Tolhurst, whose practice also focuses on re/insurance and regulatory matters. Admitted as a lawyer in Bermuda and England and Wales, Hanno was a senior associate in the London corporate team of the international law firm CMS Cameron McKenna Nabarro Olswang before joining ASW in 2015.
