Manolete makes Associate Director appointment

Manolete Partners has announced that Alexandra Withers has moved into an Associate Director position within the company.

Withers studied law at Northumbria University and has worked in practice in Newcastle for the last decade, predominantly acting for insolvency practitioners in claims against former company directors and others, but also working on behalf of directors defending such claims.

She is also the chair of the North East arm of insolvency and restructuring trade body R3 and leads the organisation’s efforts across the region to highlight the work of the profession in supporting businesses, individuals and the economy, and promoting the benefits of seeking qualified advice at the first sign of financial distress.

Manolete buys or funds insolvency claims, and works with insolvency practitioners and their lawyers across the UK to maximise returns for creditors.

Mena Halton, Head of Legal at Manolete Partners, said “Alexandra is an experienced and highly-regarded member of the North East insolvency profession and makes an excellent addition to our regional team.”
