Rebecca has over 12 years’ experience, working with various top city and regional practices. She has also completed a six-month secondment to a hedge fund and a short secondment to a German law firm.
Rebecca’s work in the restructuring and insolvency team will range from handling complex restructuring and insolvencies, often involving an international or regulatory element, as well as providing strategic advice to companies and their directors in financial difficulty and insolvency practitioner clients.
Melia Hirst, partner in the restructuring and insolvency team, said: ‘Nick Keitley and I are delighted to welcome Rebecca into our growing team, now extending our geographical reach in London, Surrey, Thames Valley and Sussex, especially so at a time when we are seeing an upturn in clients and distressed businesses requiring our specialist assistance. Rebecca brings a whole wealth of experience to complement our own. We are excited to have her on board.’
Managing partner, Matthew Barrow, stated: ‘We are pleased to welcome Rebecca to the firm. During a time of uncertainty, Rebecca’s arrival is a positive step for our growing the firm’s restructuring and insolvency team.’
