Bankruptcy and restructuring
Our practice provides comprehensive legal advisory on restructuring and bankruptcy procedures, incl. the so-called “pre-packaged insolvency”, which makes it possible to freely transfer the bankrupt enterprise to an investor. We represent debtors and creditors alike. The scope of our services also includes out-of-court restructuring. Moreover, we represent clients in court disputes concerning liability of board members for debts/obligations of an insolvent company, procedures related to bans on engaging in business activity or holding specific positions, proceedings involving criminal liability for failure to submit a bankruptcy petition, as well as other procedures arising from the bankruptcy and restructuring law.
