Insolvency

Court‑ready strategies for schemes, winding‑up and liquidations delivered with pace and precision.

Overview

Overview

Our Restructuring and Insolvency practice draws on the combined expertise of our lawyers in the British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Guernsey, Hong Kong, Jersey, London and Luxembourg.

We’re proud to be offshore market leaders in delivering successful results in complex cross-border consensual and non-consensual corporate restructurings.

Our team has extensive experience in contentious and non-contentious insolvency matters, and specialise in realising value in distressed situations, including security enforcement, special situations, debt restructurings and liquidations.

Our expert lawyers play a leading role in some of the largest and most high-profile insolvency related cases that require specialist offshore expertise. These are often cross-border and require rapid and efficient co-ordinated advice, delivered through our seamless way of working across multiple jurisdictions.

We have deep experience in complex cross-border mandates and provide practical, commercial solutions across a wide range of restructuring and recovery matters. Our expertise includes banking and fund restructuring, winding-up proceedings, liquidations, and both solvent and insolvent restructurings. We also advise on schemes of arrangement, creditors’ rights, constructive trust proceedings, and cross-border issues.

We support clients on all aspects of corporate and fund restructurings, corporate recovery, debt restructuring, dispute resolution, and solvent and insolvent liquidations, ensuring clarity and efficiency at every stage.

Our expertise is consistently recognised by the leading independent guides to law firms, so you can be assured you are in the hands of experts.

Our team members are also closely involved with influential industry bodies, including INSOL International and the International Women’s Insolvency and Restructuring Confederation (IWIRC).
