Hadley Chilton
Partner
Cork Gully is delighted to announce the opening of its new office.
The Guernsey office is led by Hadley Chilton and Stephen Cork, Global Managing Partner of Cork Gully. Stephen and Hadley have decades of experience of handling complex advisory, restructuring and insolvency assignments in multiple jurisdictions, including all of the major financial centres.
Hadley and Stephen have undertaken numerous contentious and non-contentious engagements in Guernsey for many years, as has colleague Mark Smith (London) who previously spent 5 years leading the restructuring and insolvency offering for a big-four firm in Guernsey.
Hadley has led restructuring and insolvency practices in the Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands, and he commented “Guernsey’s reputation for robust and clear regulation means it is widely recognised as a leading jurisdiction for financial services business including funds, private wealth and insurance. This naturally aligns with our rich heritage and reputation as a trusted provider of advisory, asset management and restructuring advice.
What distinguishes Cork Gully is the holistic range of solutions for organisations experiencing crisis, dispute or winding down; including directorships and a successor asset manager, as well as acting as receivers or insolvency practitioners. We are looking forward to further developing our existing relationships and making new contacts in the Bailiwick.”
Stephen Cork further commented that “our specialist teams have a proven track record of assisting clients in times of need. We are an independent firm providing expert advice in a timely manner, which is crucial when dealing with issues involving underperformance or distress.
We provide an integrated service across our offices and the Guernsey office will spearhead a strategic programme of international expansion to be followed by new offices in Jersey, Luxembourg, Cayman Islands, Switzerland, UAE, New York and Mauritius. We are excited to share details of these new offices and the services they will offer in the coming months.”
