Insolvency & Restructuring

Our insolvency and restructuring group is a recognised market leader, with extensive experience in all aspects of insolvency and reconstruction work.

Our clients include banks and other financial institutions, large corporates, the leading accountancy firms, and regulatory agencies.

We assist clients with all aspects of corporate stress and insolvency. This includes corporate recovery measures such as debt restructuring, work-outs, and arrangements and compromises with creditors. It also includes corporate reconstructions, distressed mergers and acquisitions, administration, receiverships, investigations, statutory management, and liquidation.

Our recovery specialists provide assistance with the enforcement of security (including by receivership and mortgagee sales) and proceedings against guarantors.

We have experience in cross-border insolvencies, as well as in distressed debt trading and restructuring investment.

We act in proceedings against directors, fraudulent transfer claims, preference actions, and other insolvency-related litigation.

We bring in specialists from our other groups (for example, our tax and commercial lawyers) as and when they are needed, and work closely with accounting and other professionals, to ensure the best possible commercial outcome.
