‘Combining “Magic Circle” expertise and a depth of service on a national level’, Addleshaw Goddard’s practice continues to act on a variety of high-profile insolvency and corporate recovery mandates, and possesses one of the pre-eminent restructuring offerings in the market. Group lead Jamie McIntosh ‘delivers first-class service’ across insolvencies and restructurings and retains close connections to an enviable roster of financial institutions and insolvency practitioners. Tim Cooper ’has excellent knowledge in the areas where insolvency and environmental legislation overlaps’ and is routinely instructed on both contentious and non-contentious matters, while Addi Spiers is highly reputed for her work in the distressed real estate space. Emma Widdowson provides further corporate restructuring capabilities, especially in regard to UK clearing banks, and Courtney Clelland is singled out by clients as a key name to note. Sophia Harrison joined the group in February 2025 from Burness Paull LLP, contributing her deep knowledge of court ordered restructurings and asset recovery.
