Experienced Banking & Finance lawyer Alex Wickens has joined Walkers' Guernsey team.

Alex – rated as a Rising Star by Legal 500 last week – has been in private practice for almost a decade and specialises in real estate financing and Islamic financing matters.

He advises clients on complex structuring arrangements on acquisitions and disposals of UK commercial real estate assets, advising on both borrower and lender side.

Alex joins the team led by Group Partners Zoë Hallam and Kim Paiva.

Walkers' Guernsey Managing Partner Matt Sanders said that Alex's arrival was very welcome.

He said: "We are very pleased to welcome Alex to our busy Banking & Finance team – his experience in real estate financing dovetails neatly with the skills of our existing team, and he has significant experience in practising Guernsey law."
