Insolvency litigation

Hill Dickinson has wide-ranging experience in assisting and acting on dispute resolution in distressed and insolvent situations. We advise on a preventative and active basis on issues arising both before and after the start of formal insolvency procedures. 

We advise office holders, banks/lenders, creditors and directors on issues or disputes that can arise during the course of an administration, receivership, liquidation, voluntary arrangement or bankruptcy. 

Our expertise in contentious work includes not only disputes such as contractual or negligence claims, but also the following specialist areas:

  • Asset recovery
  • Misfeasance and breach of duty
  • Antecedent transactions eg transactions at undervalue and preferences
  • Restitution claims
  • Retention of title
  • Director’s disqualification actions
  • Fraud investigations
  • Director’s dismissal
