Carol D. Misiewicz

B.A., LL.B (Hons), C.L.E.

Carol Misiewicz has a background that spans the spectrum of all aspects of both public and private practice. Called to the Bahamas Bar in 1989 she began a career with the Attorney General’s Office, rising to the level of Senior Counsel. As crown counsel she was required to give legal advice to all government ministries and departments, to vet and draft agreements and prosecute and defend civil claims at Supreme Court level. Before departing that office Mrs. Misiewicz held acting appointments as Registrar General and Assistant Registrar of the Supreme Court.

In 1995 she entered private practice with one of the largest firms in The Bahamas where she conducted civil trials and defended personal injury claims, appearing before the Supreme Court and Court of Appeal. In addition, she wrote legal opinions for local and overseas clients on a range of matters and tutored attorneys with the firm.
In 2001, she returned to public practice as a judicial officer when she was appointed a Stipendiary and Circuit Magistrate. As a first instance judge Mrs. Misiewicz presided over civil and criminal, and juvenile and family cases, both in New Providence and on circuit.
Promoted to the position of Deputy Registrar of the Supreme Court in 2006, she was designated Manager for the Family Division of the Supreme Court Registry. As registrar she heard and determined interlocutory applications in all Divisions of the Court, assessed damages in personal injury claims and conducted dispute resolution conferences. She returned to private practice in 2007.
Mrs. Misiewicz (formerly Munnings) has been an examiner for the Royal Bahamas Police Force Forensic Division, and is currently an Associate Tutor at the Eugene Dupuch Law School.
