Expert corporate restructuring and insolvency advice

Insolvency procedures and restructuring solutions

Our restructuring and insolvency practice advises companies, directors, creditors, insolvency practitioners and stakeholders navigating financial distress, insolvency proceedings and corporate restructurings.

We advise on the full range of insolvency procedures, including voluntary and compulsory winding up, receiverships and provisional liquidation, as well as court‑supervised and out‑of‑court restructuring solutions such as schemes of arrangement, debt restructurings and informal workout arrangements.

Our restructuring and insolvency lawyers also advise directors, creditors and office holders on duties, enforcement options, recovery strategies and solvent restructurings.

Cross border restructurings and insolvency disputes

Where restructuring or insolvency matters involve cross‑border elements, our restructuring and insolvency lawyers work closely with insolvency practitioners and legal advisers in other jurisdictions to coordinate strategies and manage parallel proceedings.

Our insolvency litigators regularly appear before the courts on contentious matters, including winding‑up petitions, disputes relating to office holder appointments and conduct, claims against directors and applications for recognition of foreign insolvency proceedings.

We also advise stakeholders on legal and strategic risk where disputes arise during restructurings or insolvency processes.
