It’s a cautionary look at what can happen when intentions are not clearly documented.

Strengthening the Platform: Introducing Our Insolvency & Restructuring Practice

Cambridge LLP is pleased to announce the launch of our Insolvency & Restructuring practice group, further expanding the firm’s capabilities in complex commercial disputes. 

The story behind the group is a unique one. Over the past year, Russell Bennett has been building a strong foundation within our Business Litigation team, maximizing his experience with creditor remedies, debtor protection, and distressed commercial situations.

That momentum now evolves into a dedicated practice group as we proudly welcome Russell's father and mentor Frank Bennett to our team as Special Counsel. A respected figure in Canadian insolvency law, Frank brings over five decades of experience advising and litigating complex commercial restructurings and enforcement strategies. Frank is also widely known as the author of a leading text on Canadian insolvency law, Bennett on Bankruptcy, the 28th edition of which was just released for 2026!  

Together, Russell and Frank anchor a practice group focused squarely on commercial insolvency matters, ranging from creditor-side strategy, recovery and enforcement, to priority disputes, court-driven restructuring processes and debtor protection.
