Ian Grier LL.M., FABRP is a leading insolvency lawyer.  He was admitted in 1972 and initially practised commercial litigation in a medium sized London firm.  Since 1977, he has specialised in insolvency law and is a well-respected expert. He co-founded the firm with David Sprecher in 1984.

He is a licensed insolvency practitioner and Fellow of the Association of Business Recovery Professionals (R3) and has for many years been recommended as a leader in insolvency in Chambers directory.

His well established reputation stems not only from the popularity of several textbooks he has co-written on insolvency law, but also from many years of handling the complete range of insolvency matters.

Ian was head of the Restructuring & Insolvency Group until July 2009 and deals with all aspects of corporate and individual insolvency.  Whether providing assistance to insolvency practitioners (with administrations, liquidations, bankruptcies or voluntary arrangements), devoting his expertise to the rescue, restructuring and/or disposal of businesses in difficulty, or advising directors facing legal responsibilities, his approach remains equally solution oriented. His expertise also covers court appointed receiverships and LPA receiverships.

Ian’s other areas of practice include corporate and contractual litigation, banking litigation and regulatory matters.

His experience, expert legal knowledge and in depth understanding of the specific commercial reality of insolvency situations enable Ian to give insolvency practitioners as well as company directors the most proactive and accurate support.

Ian lectures widely to the R3, firms of Chartered Accountants and other professional bodies in relation to the law and practice of insolvency.
