Contentious restructuring and insolvency is a key area of expertise for Maples Group and the firm’s stellar clientele includes insolvency practitioners. The team also notes a recent influx of restructuring work from China. Matthew Freeman was promoted to local practice group leader for the BVI dispute resolution and insolvency team in December 2023. Also promoted in December 2023, to the partner level, Stuart Rau demonstrates prowess in the full range of commercial disputes and is a go-to advocate in hearings before the BVI Commercial Court. Scott Tolliss excels in litigation stemming from distressed events, and Adrian Francis is a further key contact.

‘Maples BVI is our go to firm whenever we have any matters which requires legal services involving BVI law. Having worked with Maples for about a decade on 2 highly contentious matters, I am happy to say that they have been consistently reliable and efficient in responding to whatever queries and legal issues put to them with intelligent, sound and practical advice and solutions for our mutual clients. Their fees are reasonable given the quality of their work and prompt response.

‘Scott Tollis is a very sharp counsel and is able to provide clever and effective solutions to legal problems. Having worked with Scott for almost 6 years on 2 highly contentious briefs with a very determined and well-resourced opponent, I can vouch for Scott's commitment and passion in advancing our clients' cause. He has the rare ability to have a good grasp of the law, come up with brilliant legal strategies and ideas whenever there is a situation that we need to overcome and be a very likeable and easy to work with counsel. In a recent Court of Appeal brief which we worked together on, Scott continued to impress with his quick turnaround time and ideas. It is always a pleasure to work with Scott.’
