Top 10 of 960 law firms for Distressed Investing, Company Law

Law firms ranked by client reviews

Distressed investing covers buying or financing troubled businesses or assets, often to facilitate a rescue, restructuring or orderly wind‑down. A solicitor in this area handles due diligence, negotiates terms of acquisition or rescue, drafts and reviews asset and share purchase agreements, and coordinates with creditors, administrators, and insolvency practitioners. They help structure pre‑pack deals, standslides, or formal insolvency processes and advise on risk, regulatory compliance, and the potential for value recovery.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The work hinges on complex provisions, including the interplay of rescue strategies, administration or liquidation, pre‑pack sales, and priority of claims. A solicitor coordinates with insolvency practitioners, purchasers, and financiers, and structures deals to preserve value while managing competing interests, restrictive covenants, and regulatory and disclosure requirements. They also navigate due diligence, warranties, and potential directors' duties arising in troubled scenarios.

Tagged solicitors Rachael Latham and Richard Bruce

I was incredibly lucky to have Fiona Bruce Solicitors working on my case after another Solicitor I had instructed went into liquidation the day before we were due to exchange contracts. Not only did they take on my case which involved checking all the work completed so far, they worked towards an (almost!) impossible deadline so that we didn’t lose our buyer. Me and my family are eternally grateful to Richard and his wonderful team for what they have done
