Led by the ‘very commercial’ Roger Elford, Charles Russell Speechlys LLP has gained a strong reputation among IPs in relation to highly contentious insolvency matters. The ’very clever’ Jamie Tilling is also key to much of this work, particularly where there are allegations of fraud and on cross-border mandates when asset tracing is required. The vastly experienced Alison Goldthorp is skilled at advising directors’ boards on restructuring and related advice on their fiduciary duties, while Hanh Nguyen is adept at advising on distressed M&A mandates.
