Insolvency & Restructuring

Whether you are a business executive or a buyer, you may be required to carry out a profound reorganization of your company or one of its entities to improve performance or to ensure its solvency. To ensure a successful outcome, it is key to take into account all the legal aspects from the outset, both related to the transaction and to the economic sector involved.

Working with our lawyers, you will benefit from experience gained over many years in various economic contexts and in all industry sectors. We can assist you particularly with regard to safety precautions in the event of liquidation, recovery, transfer, etc., obtaining ailing company status, with the conclusion of shareholder agreements or in the management of litigation related to these specific situations. When the situation requires a very specific expertise, such as employment or tax law, we will work in tandem with other CMS teams.
