What We Do

Restructuring and Insolvency

Devonshires' Restructuring and Insolvency Team spans a number of different disciplines across the Firm and the specific Team that is assembled for you will depend on the particular circumstances. We have advised on a wide variety of situations requiring restructuring, many of which have insolvency issues attached to them. Insolvency (current or impending) has its own set of rules and practice which means that taking any steps to resolve the situation will require expert advice. You will need to make all commercial decisions with knowledge of the legal implications at your fingertips to navigate the legal traps imposed such as winding up, administration, wrongful trading, unlawful preferences, transactions at an undervalue and connected party transactions. An in-depth understanding of all the options will be needed whether you are seeking to recover monies, restructure debt or equity, provide further finance or take security.
 
We act for creditors, chargeholders, officeholders and debtors in connection with recovery actions, enforcement, Court and non-Court processes to protect assets, sale of assets or businesses and many other restructuring transactions under the broad headings set out on the left-hand side of this page.
