Leonard Curtis expands into Bristol
One of the UK's leading corporate recovery, insolvency and restructuring specialists is expanding its reach after opening a new office in the West Country.
Leonard Curtis, a national independent practice with more than 100 staff based around the UK, has set up a new base in Bristol.
The office, which is located at Queen Square in the city, will be led by Director Colin Prescott, an insolvency practitioner with more than 25 years experience in the industry.
Leonard Curtis provides positive strategic advice to directors of struggling companies, enabling them to retain control of their business, as well as creditors and professionals involved with those dealing with debt and financial problems.
The firm also has a separate turnaround division, LC Corporate Strategies, which has particular expertise in crown debt restructuring and cashflow management for UK companies in distress.
Colin said the decision to open the new office in Bristol represents ‘an exciting new chapter' for the company.
He said: "Leonard Curtis already has offices in the North West, London and Birmingham and they were keen to broaden their reach by establishing a base here in Bristol.
"The move makes perfect business sense because it means we now have an excellent geographical spread and an opportunity to grow the Leonard Curtis brand.
"My own background is in insolvency but with the assistance of the LC Corporate Strategies team, we will be able to offer clients a full range of financial assistance packages.
"We know these are very challenging times for businesses but we have the knowledge and skills needed to ensure that business owners don't just survive but thrive in this tough financial climate. With help there are workable solutions to almost any problem."
Paul Reeves, Director at Leonard Curtis, added: "Our strategy is to continue to develop Leonard Curtis as a truly national operation and the opening of the Bristol office is an important staging post in this development. It will allow us to grow and serve a new region bringing our unique brand of independent corporate recovery, insolvency and restructuring to Bristol and the South West."
In addition to the new office in Bristol, Leonard Curtis also has offices in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bury, Blackburn, Wolverhampton and Newcastle.
