Holly spent the earlier part of her legal career acting for the Insolvency Service in bringing disqualification proceedings against company directors, as well as winding up companies in the public interest.
Since joining JMW in 2016, Holly’s work also includes advising on clients on a range of commercial disputes, including claims for breach of director’s duties, professional negligence, actions arising from company insolvency, as well as defending businesses, suppliers, and brokers in claims for undisclosed commissions.
She plays a key role in assisting with large and complex pieces of litigation which include a £1.2 million unjust enrichment claim which was successfully litigated in the Court of Appeal and which proceeded to the Supreme Court, and assisting insolvency practitioners with the recovery of £9 million owed to customers of a failed foreign exchange company.
Clients describe Holly as passionate, hardworking, and accustomed to taking a forensic approach to matters, recognising that many cases are won by focusing on the detail.
After spending six years working as a radio broadcast journalist and presenter, Holly completed the Graduate Diploma in Law in 2009 and then the LPC in 2010, subsequently achieving a qualifying First Class law degree at Nottingham Law School.
