Michael is a Partner in our Dispute Resolution team, based in the London office.  A pragmatic lawyer, Michael is an insolvency litigation specialist acting for parties subject to complex and high-value disputes within the distressed/insolvency arena, often with a cross-border element. 
 
Michael has acted for corporates, shareholders, insolvency practitioners, directors, and individuals across a broad range of complex insolvency-related issues and disputes. 
 
Having previously worked in the Restructuring team at a major clearing bank, Michael also brings real commercial insight into distressed/insolvency positions from a lender perspective, providing a multi-faceted understanding of business failure from across the distressed spectrum.  
 
Clients appreciate Michael’s tough and no-nonsense approach, tackling difficult problems with a calm and pragmatic logic to achieve a resolution. 

Michael qualified as a solicitor in 2009.

Michael has provided me with legal advice on a number of cases recently and I appreciate his clear and robust advice. This advice also takes into account commercial considerations as well as the strict legal position and strikes a good balance between the two.

Client

…a great communicator and has always been very willing to chat through any insolvency related questions that I might have. This has been hugely beneficial to me and has undoubtedly helped me and the team to provide clear and effective legal advice to our stakeholders.

Client

Michael is an absolute delight to work with. As will be immediately obvious to anyone who meets Michael, he is the definition of a “people person”. He is also hard-working, thoughtful and calm under fire

Client

Extremely personable and easy to work with. I was particularly struck by his wish to test the logic of our strategy at each step to ensure…objectives were being met
