Restructuring/Insolvency | UK Bar

Enterprise Chambers houses a strong bench of barristers who are noted by instructing solicitors for "bringing the wider piece in their analysis." Members are adept at handling both personal and corporate insolvencies, and are regularly called upon to represent companies and their directors, insolvency practitioners and government departments. The team is well regarded for its expert handling of both contentious and non-contentious matters. Barristers at Enterprise Chambers advised former Post Office sub-postmasters declared bankrupt in the wake of the Horizon scandal in light of sub-postmasters' compensation being threatened by continuing debts.

The barristers at Guildhall Chambers are well regarded by sources for their "sound, reasoned advice" and "capability to handle the most complex matters" across corporate and personal insolvencies. The areas of strength for the team include corporate administrations and liquidations, directors' disqualification proceedings and cross-border insolvencies. The set's barristers act for insolvency office holders and several regulatory bodies. Barristers at Guildhall recently acted in a claim against Barclays and an insolvent company's former directors alleging unlawful means conspiracy relating to the transfer of the company's assets.
