Our experience

Our experience includes:

• Acting for the former finance director of a large corporate in defending director's disqualification proceedings.
• Acting for a creditor in the receivership of a large retail group in circumstances where a competing creditor was claiming to be entitled to the majority of the surplus assets in the insolvency. We successfully secured a payment which represented a significant proportion of the surplus for our client.
• Acting in connection with a multi-million pound claim for breach of contract arising from the administration of a national retail chain.
