Kings Chambers’ dedicated team of Insolvency barristers has a well-earned national reputation for its strength across various levels of call from senior silks to junior juniors. The team has very extensive experience of all aspects of insolvency, personal and corporate, contentions and non-contentious, domestic and cross-border, and represents insolvency practitioner office-holders, respondents and defendants to insolvency and related claims, creditors and other interested parties and stakeholders. Our barristers appear regularly in reported cases and can work individually or as part of a team, as required. Many of our barristers are consistently recommended in Chambers & Partners and the Legal 500 as leaders in the field of restructuring and insolvency and appear in high profile cases.
Our barristers are fully conversant with the very latest developments in the law and practice in the ever-changing world of insolvency and provide seminars, publications and workshops for professional audiences.
Typical work undertaken by the team includes:
