Kinstellar’s R&I Group provides a broad range of upper margin, value-added legal solutions and crisis management skills with extensive experience in domestic and international restructuring matters to navigate clients through the turmoil of situations involving financially-troubled companies.

We primarily act for debtors and financial institutions, but we also provide advice and solutions to other constituencies of distressed situations. In addition, we advise financially healthy companies on implementing changes to their capital or corporate structures to enhance enterprise value and to enable them to acquire or invest in beleaguered companies.

Kinstellar’s R&I Group regularly assists clients with:

  • handling cross-border corporate restructurings and workouts
  • advising on the disposal of troubled business operations and assets
  • advising on purchasing assets from distressed companies or entities subject to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings
  • representing various classes of lenders with respect to distressed credits
  • advising with respect to restructuring and rescheduling of the debt of heavily leveraged entities
  • responding to bail-out legislation and emergency regulatory measures
  • advising creditors on strategies to take control of distressed situations and bankruptcy proceedings
  • advising on bankruptcy planning and negotiations

Our team fields dedicated professionals from each of our offices allowing us to efficiently respond to cross-border situations in the wider CEE region. As appropriate, we draw upon and benefit from the experience of our recognised lawyers in banking, corporate, energy, employment, real estate, environmental, tax and other areas. This comprehensive approach to solving problems allows us to address the wide range of issues that develop when restructuring the assets and liabilities of troubled businesses and protecting clients dealing with troubled companies.
