Restructuring & Insolvency

To adequately address your questions, we will put together a team with all the required expertise: from corporate law, tax, and finance, to litigation. Being part of a full service international firm also allows us to scale up if necessary.

Our multidisciplinary team supports bondholders, lenders, investors, debtors, shareholders, creditors, distressed companies, their management and principal stakeholders by providing assistance and tailor-made advice in restructuring and insolvency situations.

You can count on us to deal with all issues related to debt restructuring and distressed financing, whether through equity cures, waiver preparations, or enforcement of security rights by lenders, or otherwise.

We also advise in debtor protection proceedings, in enforcement proceedings, or in any other kind of insolvency proceedings.

For its USD 20 billion debt restructuring, the largest-ever in Latin-America, Brazilian telecom company Oi relied on our team for assistance in the successfully ratified offer of two composition plans in the Dutch judicial insolvency proceedings of Oi’s financing companies.

Our team also advised the syncreon Group, a globally operating provider of supply chain services, on its debt restructuring through an English scheme of arrangement. Completed in October 2019, this was the first time an English scheme of arrangement was used for an international organisation primarily based in the United States and headquartered in the Netherlands.

''An experienced team who are used to dealing with high profile and complex cases. Consistent strength in depth throughout the team.'' (2020)
