Restructuring & Insolvency

In addition to being instructed on highly significant mandates, we can also act as conflict counsel for the banking sector - where other panel-led firms may be unable .

The Restructuring & Insolvency team’s deep expertise and extensive experience allow us to support you in everything from financial restructurings, corporate turnarounds, and insolvencies to domestic special situations, recapitalisations, fundraisings, private credit market and direct lending mandates. Advising a wide variety of affected stakeholders, we work across a broad range of sectors and markets, including oil and gas, financial services, aviation, real estate, leisure, consumer finance, and distressed retail.

We are specialists who understand your sector and care about your long-term success. Composed of highly ranked lawyers in the fields of banking and finance, corporate, commercial, real estate, funds, employment, and insurance, our lawyers are experienced, dynamic, and familiar in acting on high-profile insolvency and restructuring matters.

When matters cross borders, we work closely with tried-and-tested restructuring and insolvency lawyers through our own offices and close relationships we’ve nurtured with first-class firms across the globe.

In recent years, the Restructuring and Insolvency team has supported the acquisition of Coventry Arena by Frasers Group, LINK on its resolution planning, the administration and sale of the Corbin & King restaurant group, and the bankruptcy proceedings of Dr Vijay Mallya. In addition, our team has acted for a creditor for McColls and the Hong Kong Airlines scheme and restructuring plan, and for a shareholder of the Force India Formula One team.

We will work with you to secure the best possible outcome - whether contentious, non-contentious, formal, informal, transactional, advisory or investigatory.
