Ged BarnesAddleshaw Goddard

The insolvency practice at Addleshaw Goddard is headed by its national and international head of restructuring Ged Barnes, who has significant experience advising key clients on the full array of often cross-jurisdictional and consistently high-stakes corporate insolvency matters, particularly in non-contentious contexts, a focus shared by Tim Taylor. Sarah Foster is a key team member, who also stands out for her capabilities handling the spectrum of restructurings and related issues. Notably, the team was bolstered in August 2022 with the arrival of managing associate Peter Speight who has particular expertise in administrations, receiverships and liquidations, from Hill Dickinson LLP. Contentious-focused legal director Jean Boldero departed to an insolvency litigation financing company in January 2023.
