'Dynamic, collaborative and experts in their field', the dispute resolution practice at Collas Crill acts in a range of contentious matters, standing out particularly for s.238 merger appraisal litigation, an area in which one client contends it 'has the leading practice'. Cross-border insolvency and fraud cases are further strengths. Stephen Leontsinis co-leads the practice group and acts for a broad client base. Alongside him, Rocco Cecere oversees insolvency, corporate disputes, and merger appraisal litigation subgroups. Matthew Dors is strong in cases involving Cayman and US concurrent insolvency, bankruptcy and receivership proceedings, while Zachary Hoskin is another merger appraisal litigation expert to note. Annalisa Shibli is an up and coming figure in commercial litigation, insolvency and restructuring. Jennifer Colegate departed the firm in June 2024.
