Restructuring & Insolvency
Expertise
With our experience in corporate and commercial law, we are well-poised to advise liquidators, companies, creditors, and debtors in all aspects of insolvency and restructuring, including solvent reorganisation, debt restructuring, judicial management, schemes of arrangements, rescue financing, voluntary or involuntary winding up or liquidation proceedings, and prosecuting or defending claims by companies in liquidation.
Our contentious restructuring and insolvency lawyers act quickly to ensure that our client's goals are accomplished, often in challenging and time-sensitive circumstances, especially when they are distressed business entities.
The insolvency procedure seeks to resolve outstanding debts owed to creditors by individuals or businesses. However, issues may still exist with stakeholders, shareholders, banks, and other insolvency lawyers once insolvency has begun. To prevent issues from escalating, our insolvency lawyers can assist you in resolving your conflict.
