Dorsett Recalls Sir Gerald Watt as Fearless Advocate, Demanding Mentor and Builder of Legal Legacy<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Attorney David Dorsett delivered a deeply personal tribute Wednesday to Sir Gerald Owen Anderson Watt<\/strong>, portraying the late senior counsel as a relentless advocate for justice, a demanding but compassionate mentor, and a lawyer who built a legal legacy grounded in principle rather than convenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking during the official funeral service at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Dorsett reflected on more than 20 years working alongside Sir Gerald in legal practice, describing him as a \u201cgiant of a man\u201d whose presence, discipline and standards shaped not only a law firm, but generations of attorneys.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Dorsett structured his tribute around Psalm 90, noting that Sir Gerald lived for 31,771 days \u2014 nearly 87 years \u2014 and used those days with purpose. He said Sir Gerald understood that life was bounded and brief, but believed deeply in using that time to build institutions that would endure.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe built something that he intended was to last,\u201d Dorsett said, referring to the law firm Sir Gerald founded and carefully architected. He said those who followed him were left with \u201cbig shoes to fill,\u201d but also a clear blueprint for professional conduct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dorsett described Sir Gerald as a lawyer who rejected easy money and was often drawn to hard cases others avoided. He said Sir Gerald viewed the law as a tool to help people in trouble, not to profit from their distress, and was driven by a desire to see justice prevail wherever possible.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe taught me very early that conceding under pressure is an ill-advised course,\u201d Dorsett said, adding that Sir Gerald believed concession must always be based on principle, not pragmatism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tribute detailed Sir Gerald\u2019s exacting standards in practice, including his insistence on rigorous preparation, precise drafting and respect for procedure. Dorsett said Sir Gerald did not want to be on the losing side of a legal argument and was selective about the battles he chose, guided by both strategy and principle.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Dorsett recalled first meeting Sir Gerald in 2004 after completing bar school in England, saying he deliberately sought to work under him because of his reputation for appearing before the Privy Council and his standing as a courtroom advocate. Sir Gerald led him in one High Court trial before placing full confidence in him to stand on his own.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

He described Sir Gerald as firm and, at times, harsh, but said the tough conversations were always aimed at professional growth. Dorsett said Sir Gerald treated younger lawyers as sons and daughters, holding them to high standards while remaining personally invested in their success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the courtroom, Dorsett spoke of Sir Gerald\u2019s hands-on leadership style and sense of responsibility toward those around him. He recalled Sir Gerald ensuring members of his firm were vaccinated during the COVID-19 pandemic and personally accompanying colleagues to medical appointments, describing him as deeply attentive to the welfare of others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dorsett also highlighted Sir Gerald\u2019s seriousness about public office, noting his careful study of parliamentary procedure during his tenure as Speaker of the House and his refusal to be a scapegoat for matters beyond his control while serving as chairman of the Electoral Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite health challenges later in life, Dorsett said Sir Gerald never lost his passion for the law, remaining meticulous, informed and forward-looking, with clear plans for the future of his firm and the profession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe cared deeply about honor,\u201d Dorsett said, adding that those left behind would seek to honor Sir Gerald\u2019s memory by being honorable \u201cin word, thought and deed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sir Gerald Watt died on Dec. 13, 2025, six days before his 87th birthday. He served Antigua and Barbuda as attorney general, parliamentarian, Speaker of the House and senior advocate, and was widely regarded as one of the country\u2019s most formidable courtroom lawyers.<\/p>\n
