Christopher was appointed the Joint Administrator of a polystyrene manufacturer in the Midlands which had lost £400,000 in the two years prior to his appointment. After the directors of the company had sought the help of the Business Recovery team, Christopher was able to spearhead the process of taking control of the company, trading the business to convert the stock and seeking a buyer for the business. The business was successfully sold as a going concern to a 3rd party thus saving the jobs of all employees.

Steve was appointed as expert witness for one party to a matrimonial case and he advised on the efficacy of a particular tax planning structure the other spouse had undertaken. Negotiating with the other party’s tax barrister, Steve, on behalf of his client, was able to negotiate a successful solution.
Steve advised on a share sale and group re-structuring. This was a complicated case with many stakeholders involved, and hence required some innovative planning to ensure the client’s financial and tax objectives were met. Using a combination of share re-organisations, issuing new shares, a share option scheme and group transfers of assets, Steve was able to suggest a route through some complex technical tax and companies act issues to assist in achieving completion of the deal.
