Insolvency Litigation
Insolvency situations can often lead to disputes, both in relation to immediate and past transactions. We have vast experience in acting in contentious insolvency matters and are widely acknowledged for our tough but result-oriented approach.
We make use of all available tools to achieve our clients' objectives, while remaining aware of the risks involved in litigation and adapting our approach to suit our clients' priorities. We are adept at using alternative dispute resolution methods where these are appropriate, but also do not shirk from vigorously pursuing a claim as required.
We have extensive experience advising and representing insolvency administrators in rescission actions and against management and investors in insolvent businesses, meaning we are also well placed to advise and represent those who are defending claims from insolvency administrators. We also have a reputation for advising on claims relating to the raising and preservation of capital.
Recent notable engagements include:
- advising the trustee of the Madoff estate on international litigation and asset tracing arising out of the Madoff fraud, involving cross-border insolvency issues
