Opus Advisory acquires Bretts Business Recovery

Opus Advisory Group, the UK’s largest independently owned restructuring and advisory firm, has announced the acquisition of Bretts Business Recovery, an established insolvency practice based in Dartford, Kent.

Founded in 2012, Brett Business Recovery has built a strong reputation for providing insolvency and business recovery advice to businesses across the region. The acquisition will see owner Isobel Brett and five core team members join Opus Advisory Group, strengthening its local expertise and expanding its presence across Kent.

The Dartford team will remain at its existing premises and work closely with Opus’ established Maidstone team to provide a broader range of restructuring and insolvency services to businesses and their advisers.

Trev Binyon, Managing Partner at Opus Advisory Group, said “We are delighted to welcome Isobel and the team to Opus. Bretts Business Recovery is a highly respected local practice with strong relationships and an excellent reputation built over many years.

“This acquisition is very much about strengthening our presence in Kent through experienced local people who understand the businesses and communities they serve. Working alongside our Maidstone colleagues, the team will play an important role in our continued growth across the region.”

Isobel Brett, Owner, Bretts Business Recovery, said “The team and I are genuinely excited to be joining Opus Advisory Group and becoming part of a much larger team, while continuing to build on the relationships and reputation we’ve established in Kent over the years.

“It’s been a really positive experience so far, and the welcome we’ve received from everyone at Opus has been fantastic. I’m particularly looking forward to working closely with our new colleagues in Maidstone, combining our local knowledge and experience to strengthen the support we can offer businesses and their advisers across the region.”

Tim Dolder, Managing Partner, Opus Advisory Group, said “Our growth strategy has always been about bringing together talented people and established businesses that share our values and approach to supporting clients. Bretts Business Recovery is a great example of that, with an experienced team, strong local relationships and an excellent reputation.

“As we continue to grow nationally, it’s important that we retain the local knowledge and personal service that businesses and their advisers value. This acquisition strengthens that commitment and is another positive step in the continued development of Opus Advisory Group.”
