Menzies LLP has launched its new business recovery arm with the acquisition of the London office of insolvency specialist Benedict McQueen, the London representative of Benedict Mackenzie. Following recent negotiations between both firms, Simon Underwood and Laurence Pagden join the newly established Menzies Business Recovery LLP as partners, bringing with them a support and administrative team. Benedict Mackenzie’s other offices remain unaffected by the move.
The team will be based in Menzies’ London office and will focus on insolvency and recovery work for SMEs as well as forensic investigation and litigation support.
The move is the latest step in Menzies’ strategy of developing its brand as a specialist service provider to owner-managed businesses.
Mike Sands, Menzies’ Senior Partner, said: “We are delighted to welcome a team of such experienced practitioners, who will add significantly to the range of services offered under the Menzies brand.”
