Thames Valley, Cheltenham, and West Midlands law firm Harrison Clark Rickerbys has appointed Frank Brumby as a partner in the restructuring and insolvency team. Frank will be based across the firm’s London and Cambridge offices, and will support Sam Payne as head of R&I firm-wide.

Frank is a well-known and well-respected figure in the R&I community – he specialises in contentious and non-contentious insolvency work for corporates and individuals, including bank recovery. He represents insolvency practitioners, creditors, lenders, directors, partners and private individuals.

“The firm’s reputation for R&I is renowned – Sam and his team are true experts and I’m delighted to be joining them to further enhance the support they offer clients at, what can be considered, quite a distressing and stressful time," said Frank.

"The way in which the team supports businesses and individuals is completely aligned to my values and practice.”

Sam Payne, head of R&I said, “Frank’s reputation precedes him – we are absolutely delighted to have him on board and there is no doubt his expert knowledge, his methodology for resolving matters with the utmost care and consideration, and his valued industry connections will absolutely benefit our clients from the outset.

"Our team, and the firm is growing and we’re so pleased to have Frank with us on a very exciting point of that journey.”

Chambers and Partners and the Legal 500 consistently ranks Frank as a leading individual for the last 20 years, and peers remark that he is ‘excellent at providing solutions under pressure.’

Franks appointment comes hot-on-the-heels of Monica Kapur who joined the R&I team as a Partner in London and Birmingham at the end of March.
