Danielle Haston
Work Department
Restructuring
Position
Danielle is predominantly instructed by Insolvency Act officeholders but also advises UK local authorities, private equity houses, investors, foreign creditors and company directors on institutional civil financial fraud, asset stripping and tax avoidance including working alongside the criminal authorities where there is a civil/criminal overlap. She has solid cross-border experience and is heavily involved in the firm’s Russia and CIS litigation practice on claims where there is a route to bringing claims from those jurisdictions in the UK. She is now developing a crypto-asset recovery niche practice to assist both insolvency practitioners and victims of high value fraud aimed at investigating, tracing and recovering cryptocurrency and assets bought with fraudulently obtained crypto and she is a member of CAPAG.
Career
Danielle started her career at Farleys where she qualified in 2007 before being recruited by Richard Healey (now head of Project Litigation in Gateley’s London office) in his former role at Howes Percival where Danielle gained invaluable experience working both for Insolvency Practitioners and directly for Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs.
Education
St Maurs Convent School, University of Central Lancashire (2000-2004) LLB and LPC.
Leisure
Danielle enjoys travel, fine dining and sports cars.
