The sizeable team of four partners at Linklaters regularly advises on high-profile restructuring and insolvency matters, and has been recently active guiding clients through the PRC real estate sector-related defaults and restructurings, as well as in the aviation and education sectors, catering to debtors, banks, and bondholders, and frequently collaborating in tandem with its top-ranked capital markets, corporate, and finance departments. The team also boasts its geographic capabilities and capitalises on its global network of offices to offer seamless advice in relation to Hong Kong, English, and New York matters. The leadership of the team is helmed by Richard Woodworth, a recent addition from A&O Shearman, and Andrew Payne, based in Singapore, both of whom leverage their considerable expertise to offer advice on complex restructuring scenarios. Denise Fung also leads the team and specialises in contentious insolvency matters; being also a solicitor advocate, she often utilises her advocacy capabilities. Another notable figure is James Warboys, who has recently relocated to London but remains actively engaged in supporting the practice.
