We have a long-standing track record of delivering high profile restructurings and insolvencies involving global brands for a wide range of stakeholders.
These include distressed companies, insolvency practitioners, creditors, private equity houses, banks and other financial institutions. Whether you’re a creditor or a debtor, our experienced lawyers can represent you in an extensive range of bankruptcy and insolvency proceedings.
We can help you renegotiate or refinance banking facilities, restructure equity stakes, and guide you through the use of insolvency or enforcement processes where necessary. And when you need them, we can bring in colleagues from our banking, private equity, pensions, employment, real estate and tax teams, who will bring to bear their experience working on restructuring corporates which are stressed or distressed. Clients tell us that this integrated, collaborative approach is critical for successful outcomes.
We know that understanding the complexities of financial distress and potential solutions is only one part of the equation; each industry has unique commercial features that affect out-of-court workouts. The depth of our industry-specific knowledge - and our contacts who provide dedicated financial and commercial advice - means we’re always geared towards helping you minimize risk, avoid complications and delays, and maximize success for all stakeholders.
