Dispute resolution

With a history tracing back to 1883, Wilkinson & Grist is best known for handling contentious probate matters, shareholders’ disputes and insolvency litigation. Banks consider it a go-to firm for handling claims arising from default loans. Heading the dispute resolution and litigation practice group is commercial disputes and insolvency specialist Keith Ho. Ivan Chu, Lawrence Chan and Florence Chan are other notable names in the team.

On the insolvency front, the firm is assisting the joint and several liquidators of Prosperous GlobalChina Holding (PGCHK) in arranging to sell its assets. The firm acted on the sale of the assets of PGCHK, including its shareholdings in two direct subsidiaries incorporated in the UK and in Guernsey, respectively, to a creditor.

The rest of the case details the firm has acted on remain confidential.

Partner Dorothy Ma departed to Ince & Co in November 2021.
