We acted in most of the major insolvency cases arising out of the last recession including Ben Line, Dan Air, British & Commonwealth / Atlantic Computers, Air Europe, Maxwell, BCCI, Barings and Polly Peck – and continue to advise on many of the largest and most complex cases today.

We also bring an in-depth understanding of finance transactions through our highly-regarded finance and funds practices.  

In the current climate, we are regularly advising our clients on restructurings and refinancings across a range of sectors – particularly in the transportation and energy fields, where we are generally considered among the market leaders.

  • Workout, turnaround and restructuring
  • Refinancing
