    2026 | Band 1 | 14 Years Ranked

    St Philips Chambers houses a strong bench of seasoned practitioners who are regularly called upon to act for and advise liquidators, company directors and corporations of all sizes on a wide range of both contentious and non-contentious matters. One instructing solicitor calls it "the leading set for insolvency" while another describes it as "the best for restructuring/insolvency work outside London." Areas of expertise for the team include liquidations, administrations and CVAs, as well as complex directors' disqualification cases. The set's members are also experienced in the handling of cross-border insolvencies. Barristers at St Philips recently acted in Lime and Black BPS Ltd v Gill, a High Court case involving insolvency, fraud and breach of fiduciary duties.

    Justin Luckman is the senior clerk.
