Restructuring operations

Our expertise in the restructuring of businesses allows us to provide tailor-made support and assistance to managers on a daily basis, to help them overcome the difficulties encountered by their company. Depending on our clients’ needs, we can direct them towards amicable solutions such as conciliation, or to legal solutions such as protection procedures, administration, or liquidation.

We work with investors and large French companies wishing to take over companies in difficulty or to invest in them in the context of recovery operations. Throughout the process, our team of experts helps them to analyse the risks (whether financial, social or environmental), to negotiate with procedural bodies, to draft documentation and to submit the takeover bid.

Our team can act in debt negotiations with the principal creditors and partners of companies in difficulty. It can assist companies of all kinds (VSBs, SMEs and major international groups) operating in all business sectors. Its thorough knowledge of the whole range of preventive and insolvency procedures allows it to act rapidly to put the appropriate solutions in place.

Several of our lawyers are members of foreign bar associations and our firm has established partnerships with recognized firms around the world. This gives us the ability to assist our clients with their transactions in Europe and internationally and to advise companies wishing to acquire a distressed French structure or to restructure their subsidiaries.

Our team has recognized expertise in the handling of disputes relating to restructuring operations, whether concerning employment, competition, criminal or environmental matters.
