Wilberforce Chambers, London

Position

Lexa Hilliard KC is a popular and well-respected silk who is recommended by the legal directories as a leading silk for commercial dispute resolution, commercial chancery, company, insolvency and professional negligence. Her expertise also covers arbitration, banking and finance as well as fraud. She regularly advises in connection with off-shore disputes in the Channel Islands, the Caribbean and the Isle of Man.

Her insolvency practice covers all aspects of corporate restructuring and insolvency. She advises creditors, directors, companies and office holders on a wide variety of corporate insolvency matters including, liquidation, administration, schemes of arrangement, CVAs and other less formal work-outs.

Her contentious insolvency work covers asset tracing, the setting aside of prior transactions, wrongful and fraudulent trading and directors’ disqualification. Her work often has an international dimension which, as the legal directories point out, means that she is “particularly adept at advising on cross-border insolvency issues”.
