Conyers is pleased to announce Nathan Figureido has been called to the Bermuda Bar, following his admission as a barrister and attorney of the Supreme Court of Bermuda on 10 April 2026. He has also been appointed a notary public and commissioner for oaths.
Director William Cooper submitted his application to the Court, describing Nathan as “eager, keen and inquisitive.” William stated, “Nathan capably carried out a variety of tasks, showing keen research and drafting skills, which should serve him well in his legal career. Based on my experience with him, I note that Nathan approaches his work earnestly and thoughtfully, and I believe him to be a person of good character.”
Nathan received his secondary education at Saltus Grammar School in Bermuda, where his achievements included advanced placement with merit, a Graduate Sociology Award and serving as vice‑captain of his sports team.
He went on to pursue post‑secondary studies at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Canada, graduating in 2021 with an Honours Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology, with a research specialism, and a minor in Biology. Having decided to pursue a career in law, Nathan undertook legal studies at the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom, where he earned a Master of Arts in Law in 2023. Nathan then completed the Legal Practice Course at the University of Law in Bristol, graduating in 2024 with first class honours.
Nathan began his pupillage with Conyers in 2025 and successfully completed the twelve‑month programme. During this period, he undertook seats in the firm’s litigation, private client, property and corporate departments.
In addition to his academic and professional training, Nathan has a strong record of volunteer work and community involvement. His experience includes serving as a youth counsellor at the BSMART Development Centre, volunteering with the Collective Cognition Lab at Wilfrid Laurier University and the Bath Law Clinic, and supporting the University of Bristol’s Pro Bono Society, where he also served as an associate editor.
In his address to the Court, Nathan reflected on the journey that led him to admission, emphasising his desire to use the law as a means of service. “I wished to become an advocate to enact systemic change and simultaneously prove to myself that I was worthy of all the kind people I have been blessed with in my life,” he said. “I also wanted to challenge myself. I knew studying law wouldn’t be easy, I went into it with my eyes wide open.”
Conyers congratulates Nathan on this significant professional milestone and wishes him continued success as he begins his legal career.
