Restructuring/Insolvency

Schoenherr has an outstanding record of advising on restructurings and insolvency-related matters. A dedicated team does not only provide concise advice on insolvency law and related areas of law, but always considers the commercial implications. Well-regarded for its ability to efficiently handle complex, large-scale situations, the team advises on domestic and cross border restructurings, distressed transactions and insolvency-related litigation as well as all other areas of insolvency law.

Schoenherr advises distressed borrowers, lenders, potential investors and foreign insolvency administrators on all matters relating to insolvency law.

The team has acted for a number of Austrian banks, advising on proceedings under the European Union's Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive. In addition, in recent years the team has built a strong track record of advising investors on the acquisition of distressed businesses out of insolvency.

Schoenherr is also permanent counsel to international banking associations in connection with close-out netting issues.
