Restructuring/Insolvency

Our restructuring & insolvency team is a specialised unit with particular focus on the restructuring of companies, transactions before and after bankruptcy, debt settlement negotiations, creditor recovery, advisory services relating to directors' liability and risk management related to situations where a party is in financial distress. When intermediate financing of liquidity is required, we assist in structuring collateral security. Our services include:

• Assisting companies, mortgagees, bondholders, suppliers, customers or other creditors in distressed situations
• Restructuring of companies and corporations based on legal, operational and financial evaluations
• Conducting transactions with distressed companies before or after bankruptcy and/or debt negotiations
• Handling transactions, claims and balances in regards to bankruptcy estates, including claims for retention of title at the expense of the bankruptcy estate's seizure of assets
• Enforcing mortgages, pursuing provisional security and arrest

Schjødt's restructuring work is based upon a financial and operational analysis, where collateral security, the various stakeholders and critical factors for further activities form the backdrop for the alternatives that we together with the client identify as relevant. The aim of our assistance is to follow the project to a final completion - where the situation again becomes manageable in the longer term.
