Restructuring

When a business is facing financial difficulty, many significant decisions need to be made quickly. Getting it wrong can have serious consequences.

In times of distress, businesses need to know how to stabilise and survive before they can prosper again.

Our multi-disciplinary team provide services tailored to meet your specific needs, implementing successful turnaround and restructuring solutions.

We help you negotiate successful outcomes with your key stakeholders, whilst ensuring directors can take advantage of the safe harbour against insolvent trading.

When a formal insolvency cannot be avoided, we can help you restructure via administration and deed of company arrangement. We are also experts in liquidation, receivership and bankruptcy.

When things get complicated, we’re up for the challenge.

To find out more, contact David O’Farrell.
