Position
Michele is a Senior Associate in the dispute resolution team in Kennedys’ Bermuda office specialising in commercial litigation.
Career
Michele joined Kennedys in May 2023. He previously worked for another leading law firm in Bermuda for over 3 years. Prior to that, he practised as a barrister in London.
Michele’s practice encompasses a broad range of commercial, trusts and insolvency matters. Many of his cases have an international element, often in relation to the United States. He has particular experience of high-value, complex litigation, including a number of matters where he has worked as part of multi-jurisdictional legal teams. These have included a matter which involved a trial before the Supreme Court lasting several months and various appeals to the Court of Appeal and the Privy Council. Recent cases include a claim against a company’s former officers based on the alleged theft and misuse of confidential information, acting for the liquidators of a Bermuda life insurance company, a large shareholder appraisal matter, and a high-value multi-jurisdictional trust dispute.
