Insolvency and Restructuring
Drawing on their vast body of experience, our team analyse crisis situations rapidly and cost-effectively. In a race against time, we devise solutions for creditors and debtors that are easy to implement and assist in implementing these solutions with optimum results.
Enforcement
By way of execution (attachment or debt enforcement proceedings), we enforce domestic and foreign judgments for national and international creditors against debtors, who are resident, have their registered office, or hold assets in Switzerland.
Composition proceedings and bankruptcy
In composition proceedings and bankruptcies, we act as administrators, liquidators, trustees in bankruptcy, or members of creditor committees. We bring actions to contest schedules of claims and avoidance actions. We assist foreign receivers and trustees in bankruptcy in expanding insolvency proceedings into Switzerland and in recovering assets located there.
Restructuring
We develop reorganisation plans for debtors in financial distress and assist in their implementation. We conduct negotiations with important creditors (lenders, employees, or suppliers) and advise on M&A transactions in crisis situations.
