Rebecca Jarvis > Linklaters LLP > London, England > Lawyer Profile

The ‘exceptional’ team at Linklaters LLP provides ‘technically excellent and commercially-minded advice’ to creditors, debtors, investors and insolvency practitioners (IPs) in both formal insolvency matters and more transactional mandates, including special situations and distressed M&A. Much of the work also has a cross-border angle, with the firm able to provide a true one-stop-shop service by virtue of its ‘unrivalled geographical reach’.  The ‘client-focused, commercial and technically brilliant’ Richard Hodgson is also very visible at handling cross-border mandates, regularly taking the lead on insolvencies within regulated sectors. Despite her newly appointed role as co-head of the firm’s overarching global banking practice, Rebecca Jarvis remains very visible on the fee-earning front, both for company debtors and lenders as creditors, and is incredibly knowledgeable across a range of insolvency processes, as well as on restructuring mandates. Nick Le Masurier and Hodgson co-head a team which also includes ‘top-class litigator’ Chris Stevenson, who excels at handling contentious insolvency work; Matthew Harding, who handles multi-jurisdictional restructurings; and the ‘thoughtful and commercial’ Max Krasner, recently promoted to partner, who continues to gain traction among IPs, debtors and bondholders.
