With specialist knowledge of the financial services sector, Foot Anstey‘s ’extremely knowledgeable’ insolvency and restructuring practice is a key port of call for special administrations, acting for investment banks and credit unions, boards of directors, and companies. More broadly, the team excels across the charity and adult education sectors, where it has been active on a number of wrongful trading matters. Joanne Rumley, praised as a ‘stand-out restructuring lawyer in the region’, leads the team and is highly regarded for advising boards on turnaround and distressed company trading issues. Tim Pritchard handles corporate insolvency, restructuring, rescue and turnaround mandates, while senior associate Lydia Lloyd is noted for her non-contentious expertise in pre-pack administrations and administration sales.
