Our Corporate Insolvency specialists use their breadth of experience and knowledge to provide outstanding contingency planning, options reviews and insolvency advice. 

When advising the board of a company, our advice enables directors to quickly assess their options whilst managing ongoing risks and complying with their duties. Where possible, we look at a full range of options to maximise value.

When advising other stakeholders, such as banks or investors, we understand their concerns and desired outcomes to provide ongoing advice and strategies to deliver the appropriate solution.

Our team has considerable experience in formal insolvency appointments, including:

  • Company Voluntary Arrangements
  • Administrations (including pre-pack administrations)
  • Receiverships
  • Solvent and Insolvent Liquidations

Our corporate insolvency services are supported by professionals in our restructuring, corporate finance, forensic accounting, investigations and creditor services teams. We take a commercial, solutions-based approach focusing on the critical issues.

We regularly act for companies and their financial stakeholders in scenarios to develop and implement robust, strategic non-consensual financial restructuring plans, either as an alternative to a consensual restructuring deal or to facilitate a restructuring process. In addition, we are able to use insolvency as a tool to restructure liabilities, or to assist an exit, while preserving and maximising value for the company, its lenders and other stakeholders.

Our Corporate Insolvency specialists also use insolvency procedures to achieve recoveries in contentious cross-border scenarios, where necessary, for pursuing investigations, asset tracing and recovery and litigation proceedings. In addition, we also strategically plan and implement enforcement and realisation strategies to maximise recoveries. Finally, we are able to review closure options or develop strategies to exit where a business, a subsidiary, a division or product line is to be wound down.
