About
Provided by Réttur - Aðalsteinsson & Partners
Réttur’s Commercial, Corporate and M&A practice has expanded significantly since the financial collapse of 2008. Initially, the firm was engaged by major international actors in insolvency proceedings managed by the estates of the former banks, including Commerzbank, BNP Paribas, RBI, Erste Group, LBBW, and others). Subsequently, Réttur represented bondholders, primarily various funds, in set-off, recission, and winding-up cases involving Glitnir, Kaupthing and Landsbanki Íslands.
Today, Réttur is recognised as one of the leading firms in commercial, corporate & M&A in Iceland. Réttur is known for its long-term client relationships and its boutique, one-stop-firm approach, offering a full spectrum of services for companies. Réttur’s approach of providing full-range services in commercial, corporate and M&A, while benefitting from the firm’s expertise in other areas such as dispute resolution and litigation, has proved important in conflict prevention and cost-reduction for clients. Additionally, our strength in dispute resolution enhances our corporate services and clients value the team’s commercial insights. Réttur’s client base spans both international and domestic sectors, including small, mid-sized, and large companies, and the team advises on mergers and acquisitions, financial- and corporate restructuring, corporate governance, management incentive plans, regulatory matters, and a wide array of corporate law issues.
