Insolvency & Restructuring

The Firm’s Restructuring & Insolvency (“R&I”) practice has extensive experience working together with insolvency practitioners in their capacities as liquidators, judicial managers, and other court-appointed positions, advising them on the preservation and recovery of assets. We regularly advise banks, accounting firms and private trustees in bankruptcy regarding contentious and non-contentious insolvency matters.

We bring to the table our extensive experience in managing complex high value insolvency disputes, whilst constantly ensuring that we bring value by providing feasible and cost-effective solutions to ensure that the client’s commercial priorities are met. We have acted for creditors and debtors in the full suite of insolvency related matters, including high profile and complex liquidation applications, applications for judicial management, schemes of arrangement and moratoriums, individual bankruptcy and voluntary arrangements.

A significant arm of our R&I practice also involves assisting in and conducting investigations into complex corporate fraud and misconduct. The team has significant experience in acting for institutional clients in large, complex, and cross-border investigations. One of our recent engagements include our advising and acting for DBS Trustee Ltd, in respect of investigations into the demise of the Eagle Hospitality Real Estate Investment Trust, a REIT with a prior aggregate value of more than US$1.5 billion.

Our R&I team has deep experience in insolvency-adjacent litigation. As a mid-sized boutique, we are positioned as a conflict-free law firm that can take conduct of complex claims against institutional clients and prioritise finding feasible and cost-effective solutions that meet your commercial priorities.
