Insolvency & Restructuring

Imminent insolvency is a particular challenge for companies. The same applies, however, to its investors, creditors and contractual partners. Both negotiating skills and profound knowledge in M&A are called for. We advise banks and other financial institutions as well as corporate debtors and their governing bodies on all issues arising in connection with imminent insolvency, reorganization or restructuring. We represent creditors in litigation, in registering, acquiring accounts receivable or enforcing disputed claims. In these situations, the team can rely on its extensive experience in financing and M&A.

Our Insolvency & Restructuring services include

  • Capitalisation and structural measures in reorganization and liquidation scenarios
  • Representation of the interests of creditors in complex Swiss bankruptcies and cross-border cases
  • Advice on purchases and sales of distressed debt claims
  • Advice on enforcement in Switzerland and internationally
  • Managing proceedings involving scheduling and avoidance of claims and representing parties in proceedings for recognition of foreign bankruptcies
