Description

    The legal regulations of insolvency are exceptional and only apply to specific cases, but the sole possibility of its future application is a risk that debtors, creditors and third parties must always take into account when dealing with persons who may become insolvent.

    Our specialists not only fully advise debtors and creditors involved in bankruptcy proceedings, but also have broad experience in preventing risks that are typical of insolvency, as well as in finding solutions in bankruptcy proceedings or alternative processes.

    The multidisciplinary and global essence of our Firm gives the Restructuring and Insolvency practice significant strength. We have proven capacity to help our clients in their most complex operations related to cross-border insolvency, distressed mergers and acquisitions, takeover of companies under bankruptcy proceedings, and private restructuring, among others.

      "Their knowledge of cross-border transactions is very important, and just as important is their local understanding. They collaborate very well with lawyers around the world, as well as with the lenders and counterparties."

      "One particular strength is the Baker McKenzie digital platform. This means that you can connect any device – your laptop, tablet, etc – to the online platform and make slight modifications when you need to. This enables the process to be faster, more efficient and more agile."
