Expertise

A powerhouse in the offshore jurisdictions, Conyers’ highly-skilled insolvency and restructuring team advises on complex and cross-border matters. Our experienced partner led teams work closely with clients and onshore advisors to provide strategic analysis in distressed situations and provide innovative ways of restructuring and refinancing entities in advance of any formal insolvency.

Post insolvency, we regularly work with both creditors and office holders to ensure that the client obtains the best possible returns in any insolvency situation.

Our team has experience of a variety of litigation in and around insolvency situations before the local first instance Courts, Courts of Appeal and Privy Council and we regularly provide assistance to onshore firms with their corporate fraud and asset tracing claims matters.

We have particular expertise in shareholder and creditor schemes of arrangements for both solvent and insolvent companies and have been involved in many of the biggest corporate restructurings of debt and equity in the offshore world.
