ABOUT US
Do you need to adjust quickly to the insolvency of another company? Is your company itself in crisis? Do you see the situation as an opportunity for investment in a new start? Then you have come to the right place! Our inter-disciplinary team of experienced experts in restructuring and insolvency law can deliver customised solutions for complex situations quickly enough to face the crisis. Together with you we develop a way to come out of the crisis stronger and more sustainably and to implement an economically viable result.
A decisive factor in this process, in addition to our instruments as a restructurer, is the combined industry expertise of our consulting teams in areas such as automotive, aviation, banking & finance, energy, transport & logistics, real estate and the maritime industry. Moreover, with our world-wide network of specialised law firms we are a reliable partner even in international cases.
We take legal precautions to help you avoid liability scenarios before they happen, we develop a system for crisis management and early crisis detection and we also support you in the defence or assertion of any liability risks which have already occurred, including representation in court proceedings.
We also efficiently and systematically assert your claims and rights in the relevant proceedings, support you in creditor committees or creditor meetings and ensure that your securities are properly realised. Naturally we can also support you in the operational implementation of the procedure by taking over the function of an interim manager (CRO).
The ASD competence area of Restructuring & Insolvency is part of the commercial law firm ARNECKE SIBETH DABELSTEIN.

SPECIALIST AREAS
With our legal restructuring tools we support companies, shareholders, managers and the external interim management (CROs) in the sustainable restucturing of the company. Our economic expertise and specialist industry knowledge enable us to develop insolvency-proof contractual structures to facilitate the continuation or proper liquidation of the business relationship. Together with our colleagues in the areas of corporate/M&A, employment, IP and tax, we accompany you in all phases of crisis-related corporate transactions and in the sale of individual assets (distressed M&A). We support banks, shareholders, insolvency administrators and investors in the development and implementation of solutions to achieve a financial turnaround of business companies, for example by harnessing financing structures within a group of companies such as cash pooling.
EVENTS
Transfer of knowledge, networking and exchange in a spirit of partnership. These three elements make our events exciting and sustainable – for clients, tax consultants, lawyers, the press and anyone who is interested. Of course, this also applies to students who would like to join a renowned law firm. We will be delighted to welcome you!
TEAM
We support you as consultants in sustainable restructuring through all phases of the crisis, e.g. in the extrajudicial preventive restructuring, the newly created stabilisation and restructuring framework, preparation and support for the insolvency proceedings and in self-administration by the management. Due to the inter-disciplinary character of our team (lawyers, auditors, tax consultants) we can also keep an eye on your business, financial and tax affairs.
