Our Restructuring & Insolvency Practice advises creditors, debtors, insolvency practitioners, financial institutions, funds, directors and investors on contentious and non-contentious matters. We regularly act on domestic and cross-border restructurings, corporate insolvencies and distressed workouts across sectors including finance, shipping, commodities, construction, retail, energy, manufacturing and technology.
Our experience covers receiverships, judicial management, schemes of arrangement, liquidation, bankruptcy, debt restructuring and cross-border insolvencies. We frequently act for insolvency practitioners from the Big Four, regional and boutique firms, and are empanelled by all major Singapore banks and several international banks.
We help clients manage urgent timelines, competing stakeholder interests and distressed situations while preserving value wherever possible. Our cross-border work includes coordinating foreign counsel, securing recognition of Singapore proceedings and managing parallel enforcement across jurisdictions.
We also act in disputes involving breaches of directors’ duties, fraudulent trading, unfair preferences, undervalue transactions and asset recovery. Drawing on our experience under Singapore’s Insolvency, Restructuring and Dissolution Act and international insolvency regimes, we provide practical, timely and commercially focused advice before all levels of the Singapore courts.
