Georgia Knibb

Georgia is a trusted adviser to businesses, investors, and institutions on complex corporate transactions, with particular strength in financial services M&A and strategic property investments. She combines technical precision with a commercial, solutions‑driven mindset, enabling clients to pursue their strategic objectives with clarity and confidence.

Before joining Moorcrofts, Georgia spent several years in the highly regarded corporate team at Farrer & Co, where she advised high‑net‑worth individuals, entrepreneurs, family offices, and institutional investors on high‑value and often multi‑layered corporate matters. Her work frequently involved navigating sensitive deal dynamics, complex structuring issues, and regulatory considerations across multiple jurisdictions.

Georgia has extensive experience acting for regulated firms and their investors on acquisitions and disposals in the wealth management and broader financial services sectors.

In addition to her financial services practice, Georgia advises investors and leading education institutions on property‑related corporate transactions, including joint ventures and strategic acquisitions, with particular expertise in the purpose‑built student accommodation market. Her work spans the full lifecycle of an investment: structuring and negotiating joint venture arrangements, advising on governance and exit strategies, and ensuring transactions align with investors’ long‑term commercial objectives.

Georgia also works closely with entrepreneurs and owner‑managed businesses on strategic exits. These transactions often require careful negotiation, discretion, and a collaborative approach. Georgia’s ability to manage complex deal dynamics under tight timelines ensures clients feel supported throughout the process and achieve the best possible outcome.
