Senior associate specialising in contentious insolvency claims

I am a Senior Associate in the Corporate Restructuring and Advisory team. I provide dispute resolution and litigation services to insolvency practitioners, limited companies, creditors and shareholders.

My background is in corporate and commercial litigation, with a particular focus on contentious insolvency. I have litigated a broad range of claims, and applications in the County Court, High Court and Court of Appeal.

I specialise in Insolvency Act 1986 claims including misfeasance, wrongful/fraudulent trading, preferences and transactions at an undervalue. I also have niche experience in director disqualification, tax avoidance schemes by company directors and emergency injunctions.

My cases include:

I’m also an active member of the International Women in Restructuring Confederation (IWIRC) and sit on the Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Committee.
