Ami Sweeney

Partner at Grant Thornton

Speaker

I am a Partner in the insolvency and asset recovery team, specialising in private client disputes. I am a licensed insolvency practitioner with over 16 years' experience running large, complex asset recovery and insolvency assignments across multiple jurisdictions, often involving significant litigation and the unwinding of complex structures.

My work covers contentious trust disputes, insolvent deceased estates, and asset preservation, protection and recovery in matrimonial proceedings — typically where trustees or personal representatives face contested claims, insolvency risk, or cross-border complexity.

I focus on assisting legal advisors with complex asset recovery assignments, having spent over two years in the British Virgin Islands leading high-profile, cross-jurisdictional appointments to maximise recoveries. When instructed, I draw on corporate intelligence, forensic, and valuation experts to identify and recover assets, including offshore trusts and corporate structures, achieving the best results for clients.
