Trial by judge alone is a fairly new practice in The Bahamas. To ensure our students are well equipped to navigate trials by jury and trials by judge alone, we hosted the panel "Judge Alone: Perspective on Trial Without Jury in The Bahamas" on February 12th, 2026. During the panel, students heard real-life instances of cases that did and did not employ a trial by jury, including the benefits and drawbacks to both.

We extend a heartfelt gratitude to the panelists for sharing their experiences and knowledge! Panelists included: Dame Anita Allen, DBE, former President of the Court of Appeal of The Bahamas and Law Reform Commissioner; The Hon. Mr. Justice Jon Isaacs (ret.), former President of the Court of Appeal of The Bahamas; Md. Darnell Dorsette, Assistant Director of Public Prosecutions, Department of Public Prosecutions; and Mr. Stanley Rolle, Chief Public Defender, Office of the Public Defender, Bahamas.

Love is sweet, but a Will is security 🏦. If you are unmarried but want to transfer your property, business, and other assets to your common law spouse, friend, or any other specific person, you MUST have a legally valid will in place for it to be honoured by a court of law in The Bahamas.

Take action today and create your will! Starting is simple. The Wills Act of The Bahamas states that your will must:

1. Be in writing, and
2. Contain your signature, which must be given in the presence of two witnesses who are not gaining anything.

Got questions? Contact us at (242) 322-5943.

Three students from the Corporate and Commercial Law Specialist Clinic had the opportunity to attend the InspireHER Conference hosted by Cable Bahamas. It was a unique opportunity to connect with female leaders in business and gain insight into the mindset of the executives they hope to one day advise.

In The Bahamas, employment at will means an employer can terminate a worker without notice, but that doesn’t mean without reason. Make sure you know the difference between fair termination and wrongful dismissal.
If you have questions and need answers, you may contact the Department of Labour at 242-302-2550.
