Katten Muchin Rosenman UK LLP has appointed James Davison as partner and Victoria Procter as counsel in its restructuring practice in London, strengthening the firm’s capability in complex UK and cross-border mandates. The pair join at the start of 2026 and will work closely within the firm’s international restructuring platform.
Steven Reisman, global chair of the restructuring practice, said it was a ‘privilege and pleasure’ to welcome the duo, adding that they bring ‘exceptional restructuring and insolvency experience’ aligned with the firm’s ‘practical, client-focused approach’ to matters arising in the UK, the US, the EU and beyond.
Davison (pictured) advises on debtor- and creditor-side mandates with a focus on corporate rescue and turnaround, including high-profile cross-border restructurings, accelerated M&A and capital structure resets. He is also recognised for his work with the restructuring plan, a tool used to rescue companies without formal insolvency proceedings.
Procter brings extensive experience in non-contentious financial and corporate restructuring and insolvency, advising insolvency practitioners, banks and corporate stakeholders. London managing partner Christopher Hitchins said the firm was ‘delighted to welcome James and Victoria’, noting that their skills would be ‘hugely beneficial to our international client base’.
