Damien Whitehead has been hired by Ashurst as a restructuring partner. However, reports also indicate that a former Ashurst partner has joined other firms, including Howse Williams and KWM, in a restructuring role, creating some uncertainty about Whitehead's current or previous affiliation. The reports do not clarify whether these are separate individuals or the same person, and one report appears unrelated, mentioning an email scam affecting Australian law firms.
