Insolvency Practice

Andrew has a busy and wide-ranging insolvency practice which regularly includes advocacy, advice and drafting in relation to the following:
 
1)       Implementation, continuation and termination of various insolvency regimes;
2)       Asset recovery within an insolvency context;
3)       Preferences, transaction at an undervalue and recovery of property subject to trusts;
4)       Directors’ disqualification;
5)       Injunctive relief within an insolvency context;
6)       Jurisdictional issues.
 
Further Andrew’s experience of wider commercial and chancery litigation lends itself well to situations in which such disputes arise within an insolvency or as a potential trigger for it.
 
Andrew acts for office-holders and those subject, or potentially subject, to insolvency regimes as well as lenders and other creditors including local authorities.
