Gillian Duffy

Spear’s Review

Schillings partner Gillian Duffy combines expertise in reputation and privacy issues with litigation skills honed as an advocate. While her primary objective is to prevent her HNW clientele ending up in litigation, the courts are sometimes unavoidable.

At times like these, every HNW would want Duffy and the rest of the team by their side. ‘We are the only business in the world to deploy, under one roof, lawyers, intelligence experts, investigators, cyber specialists, risk consultants and senior people from the military, banking and government,’ Duffy says. ‘Having such a range of expertise at our disposal ensures every dimension of our client’s crisis is covered.’ 

Duffy, who began her career at Appleby, is experienced in managing high-stakes situations, whether it be a mass data leak or the threat of publication of false or inaccurate information.
