Hamish Scott

Overview

I am an Associate in Michelmores’ Banking, Restructuring & Insolvency team and completed my training contract at the firm.

I work with the team supporting clients with various R&I issues across both personal and corporate insolvency. This includes working with insolvency practitioners, directors and creditors across a variety of contentious, advisory and transactional matters.

I studied my undergraduate degree (Law, LLB) at the University of Nottingham and my LPC (MSc in Law, Business & Management) at the University of Law in Guildford.

Outside of work I enjoy staying active by cycling around the (usually local) countryside – and lead the monthly Michelmores’ Cycle Club rides in Bristol.
