Joining the firm in 2016, Mr Hidayat has since specialised in restructuring, corporate and personal insolvency and general commercial disputes. He advises and represents liquidators, administrators, receivers, bankruptcy trustees’ directors and lenders.
Mr Motro joined in 2010, providing advice to clients in all areas of employment law with industrial relations and workplace health and safety. He has advised clients in a variety of industries, including in IT, retail, manufacturing and pharmaceutical.
“As we all continue to experience the effects of the global pandemic, we are delighted we can add strength to our partnership with new promotions,” Mr Britten-Jones said.
