From the administrators' statement
The LLP was incorporated, and registered in England and Wales, on 1 February 2008 for the purpose of operating as a boutique commercial law firm, trading from leasehold premises in London. The firm specialised in commercial dispute resolution, real estate and finance, offering its expertise to financial institutions, private equity firms, real estate and construction industries.
One of the designated members, approached BTG Advisory (“BTGA”) on 2 October 2025 for advice pertaining to the LLP’s position. The departure of two partners, together with a key client entering into administration, had resulted in a significant decline in revenues and placed considerable pressure on the business’s liquidity position. In addition, the LLP was experiencing difficulties in collecting debtors, primarily from a large client, a European Shipping Firm, which further enhanced the financial challenges facing the business.
BTGA were subsequently engaged on 28 October 2025 to provide advisory services in respect of a possible Merger and Acquisition (“M&A”) process, options and contingency planning. This engagement and M&A process was subsequently paused while alternative options with a consultancy boutique were explored. We understand that the LLP entered into a formal engagement with this party, however the engagement subsequently came to an end and did not deliver any suitable solution for the LLP. BTGA were subsequently re-engaged on 23 January 2026 to commence the M&A process on an accelerated basis (“AMA Process’).
