Providing local support with regional knowledge for its West Midlands clients

Business rescue, business recovery & insolvency practice, Opus Restructuring LLP announces its office expansion into Birmingham to grow its presence and client base in the West Midlands.

With dedicated support for the region, Opus will continue to provide its complete service offering to its clients including business advisory, business finance, equity, merger & acquisition support as well as its core services of restructuring & insolvency and solvent restructuring.

Alongside this regional expansion, is its new senior appointment. Gareth Wilcox has been appointed as a Director at Opus and has taken lead for the new office – a natural choice, given that he is a local himself and knows the area well.

Gareth Wilcox comments, “Birmingham and the West Midlands has always been a strong focus for us and we have a great client base there.  To now have a dedicated office to service this region was a natural step for us. From a personal standpoint, it’s great to be back working in Birmingham!”

Taking a proactive approach towards tackling sensitive issues

The practice is focused on commercially driven results and takes a proactive approach towards tackling sensitive issues. At a time when a company is facing any form of challenge or significant change in its business, the only way to protect investment and minimise the risk of exposure, is to react with speed in response to the changes encountered. This may involve addressing the financial implications of growing pains; helping to deal constructively with the concerns of interested parties such as lenders, trade suppliers, credit insurers and even unsettled core customers when there are cash flow difficulties; or finding ways to neutralise more serious threats to the viability and survival of the business.

Steve Parker, Partner at Opus concludes, “We recognise that clients need help at every stage of their growth, not just at crisis point which is why we are providing our complete service offering through our Birmingham office.  Our business is about supporting company growth at every stage of trading – supporting growth initiatives as well as helping during business challenges. Ultimately, we are here to take the stress out of distress and we are looking forward to working with more businesses in this area.”
