Insolvency team welcomes new partner

Leading law firm Blake Morgan has appointed Suzanne Jones as a new partner in the firm’s insolvency team.  She joins the team’s four existing partners providing expert advice and support to all those involved with or impacted by insolvency, including insolvency practitioners, businesses, lenders and individuals.

Suzanne was called to the Bar in 2006 and was admitted as a solicitor in 2008 from when she started to develop her expertise across both contentious and non-contentious insolvency related matters.  She specialises in providing strategic and advisory support to creditors and debtors, as well as matters relating to the Insolvency Act, Companies Act and Company Director Disqualification Act.

Suzanne joins from her position as a partner in the corporate restructuring and recovery department at Seddons, and also brings expert knowledge from working on insolvency related matters for 15 years in private practice and in central government. 

Paul Caldicott, partner and head of the Business Support & Insolvency team at Blake Morgan, said: 'Suzanne will make a strong addition to the insolvency team, bringing a wealth of experience as an insolvency specialist which will be invaluable to clients as we help them navigate these turbulent economic headwinds. Her impeccable record as a trusted adviser will be an important asset as we grow the team and continue to provide industry leading, commercial, and solutions driven advice for all our clients.'
