Our Insolvency & Corporate Recovery team is one of the premier insolvency and corporate recovery teams in the East Midlands. It is consistently recognised as such by both the Legal500 and Chambers Guide to the Legal Profession.
We benefit from considerable expertise gained in acting for Licensed Insolvency Practitioners, both locally and nationally. The level of our expertise is reflected by the fact that we have a solicitor who is also Licensed Insolvency Practitioner.
We can assist you though all stages of the insolvency process from preliminary advice relating to financial problems through to formal procedures such as company voluntary arrangements, receivership, administration and liquidation. We can also advise you of your rights in the event that your business is affected by the insolvency or financial problems of a third party.
Our insolvency & corporate recovery department has extensive experience of dealing with disputes in the insolvency context having recently been described in Chambers & Partners as “the best contentious team in the East Midlands” .
Typical insolvency litigation cases dealt with by the team include:
If you face being disqualified when acting as a director the consequences...
If you are looking to buy the assets of a company that is going into administration...
" Head of practice Nicola Calthrop-Owen is widely praised by clients, who say: "She is very personable and charming." In addition she "is very creative in finding solutions to the problems you present her with." Meanwhile Chris Murratt impresses interviewees as a "very personable and thorough lawyer." Clients are quick to emphasis his excellent client service and responsiveness. Richard Leman remains a valuable asset to the practice with considerable experience of both contentious and non-contentious insolvency. "
