Restructuring and insolvency

We offer comprehensive and expert advice in a constantly evolving legal market. The strength and resources of our highly rated corporate and finance lawyers enable us to advise on the most complex corporate restructurings and insolvencies.

When required, we can mobilise a multidisciplinary team at short notice comprising insolvency experts and complemented by relevant specialist lawyers, notably in the areas of tax, real estate, litigation and pensions.

Our broad client base includes debtors, secured and unsecured creditors (including financial institutions, insurance companies, bondholders and landlords), creditor committees, special opportunity/situation investors, directors/officers and insolvency practitioners. This provides our lawyers with valuable insight into the approach of all key stakeholders and enables us to deliver innovative and practical solutions.

Restructurings and insolvencies rarely focus on a single jurisdiction. Our lawyers constantly work alongside the world's leading restructuring firms. This experience, coupled with our independent status, enables us to recommend the right firm for a particular transaction and also gives us the freedom to work with our clients' preferred firms. In either case, we are recognised for our ability to deliver seamless cross-border solutions that reflect local laws, local procedures and local markets.
