Elaine Gray, Partner and Head of Carey Olsen's dispute resolution and litigation team in Guernsey, said: "Natasha has a tremendous pedigree and reputation as an employment law specialist and we are delighted to have her as part of the team at Carey Olsen. The appointment also reflects the continued increase in employment-related instructions we are experiencing as a firm and where we feel Natasha's wealth of expertise and knowledge will be of great value to our clients."

Ms Newell is STEP qualified, a member of the Association of Contentious Trust and Probate Specialists and the Chancery Bar Association.
