Cox Hallett Wilkinson (“CHW”) has advised the liquidator of ProtoStar Ltd., ProtoStar 1 Ltd., ProtoStar II Ltd. and ProtoStar Development Ltd., Bermuda companies with US and Asian operations involved in the acquisition and launching of geostationary satellites, on the Bermuda aspects of their liquidation.
