 Allen & Overy Articles Allen & Overy (A&O) is set for a major fees windfall from its role advising on the administration of failed furniture retailer Courts after it emerged the firm and other advisers have billed a total of more than £18.5m since the company collapsed in November 2004. An administrator's progress report filed with Companies House late last year revealed that the failed company has paid out £18.5m to legal and professional advisers since it went bust. The sum has been pocketed for the most part by A&O, which is advising the administrator KPMG and investment bank NM Rothschild, which is acting as financial adviser.
