Insolvency and Restructuring Partners appear in The Lawyer’s spotlight series
Head of Insolvency and restructuring Frances Coulson, and partner Finella Fogarty have been quoted in a recent article by The Lawyer discussing the breadth of the team’s insolvency work.
Wedlake Bell’s Restructuring and Insolvency team has been featured in The Lawyer, exploring the breadth of its work, the team’s continued growth and the evolving market landscape. The article also discusses the role that restructuring and insolvency plays within the firm’s wider offering. It highlights how the team’s capabilities span the full lifecycle of financial distress, from early-stage advisory work through to complex contentious matters, and how this is supported by strong collaboration across the firm’s sector groups, including Private Client, Real Estate, Tax and Art & Luxury.
The feature further considers shifting market conditions, noting ongoing economic pressures, increased enforcement activity and the continued impact of so-called “zombie companies”. It also reflects how demand for restructuring expertise is expected to grow, particularly in sectors such as hospitality and construction, as businesses navigate a challenging and evolving economic environment.
Frances Coulson comments on the breadth and variety of the team’s work, noting that no two matters are the same and that the ability to respond to a wide range of scenarios is a defining feature of the practice.
Finella Fogarty highlights the strength of the firm’s integrated approach, along with the diverse range of instructions the team receives, from high-profile and complex mandates through to core advisory work across key sectors.
