Slater & Gordon is an iconic Australian law firm and in 2007 it incorporated and was the first law firm in the world to go public when its shares were quoted on the ASX. In 2012, Slater & Gordon entered the UK market with the acquisition of several UK based law firms, and became one of the UK's largest consumer law firms.

But things didn't go to plan and in December 2017, Slater & Gordon's lenders and shareholders approved a recapitalisation of the company via a Scheme of Arrangement. The recapitalisation involved a significant reduction of the Company's secured debt, the UK operations and subsidiaries being separated from its Australian operations, such that the Company no longer owns the UK operations and the issuance of new shares to the Company's senior lender group representing 95% of the Company's issued capital. In February 2018, former KPMG Australian National Managing Partner (Advisory), John Somerville, was appointed CEO.
