Nottingham

Emma leads the restructuring and insolvency team. She is recognised as a leading individual in the Legal 500 and as a go-to insolvency specialist. Emma has a broad practice and advises on personal and corporate insolvency as well as contentious and non-contentious issues including pre-insolvency advice to directors and stakeholders faced with distress and post-appointment support to enhance recoveries and advise on risk. 

Having started her career in-house, and with a grounding in Psychology, Emma has a calm manner and understands the commercial objectives of her clients and the need to deliver advice in a way that meets those needs. Emma works with insolvency practitioners, directors, lenders, investors, creditors and debtors whenever an insolvency event has occurred or is likely to occur. 

Emma heads up our Nottingham office but works nationally across our offices including the Birmingham, Manchester and London practices. Insolvency permeates across all sectors and, as such, Emma has good connections across the firm and is adept at working across disciplines and at pulling together a wider team of specialists from our fraud, property, intellectual property, corporate and employment teams who are accustomed to collaborating on complex insolvency assignments.
