Our approach to restructuring and insolvency

Our lawyers excel in the delivery of personal insolvency services to Insolvency Practitioners (IPs), individual debtors, creditors, and anyone else affected by bankruptcy and personal insolvency issues.

We also act for those facing insolvency risks including creditors in pursuing debts, as well as defending claims on behalf of bankrupts, debtors facing bankruptcy, and family members of bankrupts, facing a threat to their assets.

Our defence work forms an important part of the team’s practice. We have experience of acting on both sides of those disputes proving hugely valuable to resolving matters quickly and proportionately.

We also have a number of specialist departments, such as corporate & commercial, real estate, and charities, with whom we often work closely in dealing with corporate restructuring and insolvency.

We therefore have a deep understanding of the worlds in which our clients operate, which gives us an advantage as we truly appreciate and anticipate their objectives when seeking advice in an insolvency context.
