We and Des Voeux Chambers co-hosted the DVC-SFKS Young Insolvency Litigators Sharing Session on 11 November 2024.

The Sharing Session featured a dynamic panel of young lawyers, moderated by our Associate Crystal Yip who started by facilitating a lively discussion centered around a real insolvency case, with Counsel Ping Kan Kwan and Billy Liu engaging as opposing counsel. They shared valuable insights and practical tips for young litigators navigating today’s complex landscape.

Our Associate Shirley Yu then shed light on critical aspects of setting aside bankruptcy statutory demands and injunctions against winding up petitions, addressing challenges with reference to recent judicial reactions and views on practice trends.

Attendees included senior counsel, partners, liquidators, newly admitted solicitors, and junior barristers, all eager to share their experiences in the evolving field of insolvency, which are increasingly relevant in our current economic climate.

Our Partners Roy Leung and Mathew Liu gave opening and closing remarks on how the next generations would remain a pillar of the insolvency practice.

Our lawyers, at different seniorities, are all ready and capable of utilizing their expertise and network within the legal profession to yield the best outcome in insolvency-related cases.
