The last few major U.K. law firm administrations have several things in common. Insurmountable debts; a depletion of confidence in the management; an irretrievable breakdown of the partnership; and Andrew Hosking and Sean Bucknall of Quantuma—a small firm of insolvency practitioners who have over the past decade managed to corner this gloomy niche in the U.K. legal market.
