Chambers is recommended by Chambers & Partners and Legal 500 as a leading insolvency set. Members work in all areas of restructuring and insolvency, from corporate insolvency to personal bankruptcy matters.
Members of Chambers have been involved in many of the leading insolvency cases of recent years, including, Instant Access Properties, One Blackfriars and Marex in the Supreme Court.
We are able to advise in both contentious and non-contentious matters and at all stages of an insolvency. Members frequently act for creditors, directors, insolvent companies, administrators, liquidators, receivers and interested parties, and regularly advise in relation to asset recovery, the powers of office holders, and restructuring matters.
Chambers also brings its considerable cross-border and multi-jurisdictional expertise to bear in insolvency matters, and members frequently advise and appear in relation to foreign insolvencies in, for example, Hong Kong, the Caribbean, the USA, and the Channel Islands. Many members of Chambers are called to the bar in other jurisdictions.
Chambers’ insolvency work regularly involves an international dimension. Our strength in jurisdiction and applicable law issues directly assists on the application of the EU Insolvency Regulation. Members have experience of proceedings under the Cross-Border Insolvency Regulations, in acting for foreign insolvency practitioners and in ensuring co-operation between them and their British counterparts.
