Restructuring and Bankruptcy

Safe solutions for debtors,
creditors and investors

Bankruptcy and restructuring procedures are extremely complex. Without professional legal assistance, it is difficult, not only for debtors, but also for creditors, to find their way around. Instead, conscious and thoughtful use of the relevant institutions of bankruptcy and restructuring law can bring tangible benefits not only to businesses that are insolvent or at risk of insolvency, but also to creditors, who can increase their chances of recovering their receivables or minimize losses caused by the insolvency of their counterparty.

Our law firm’s experts support entrepreneurs who want to protect themselves from declining profitability and bankruptcy. They also provide professional assistance to creditors and investors.

We start working with companies in financial crisis by analysing the situation and developing a comprehensive action plan. We advise on how to maximize the effects of restructuring processes or limit the losses caused by having to declare bankruptcy. We also provide support to company board members facing personal liability. We advise on securing the interests of creditors involved in a debtor’s bankruptcy or restructuring procedure and support them in pursuing their claims. We assist investors interested in providing financing to entrepreneurs in crisis or in acquiring bankrupt companies and thereby enable them to continue their operations.
