BANKRUPTCY AND
RESTRUCTURING

In bankruptcy and restructuring proceedings there are no simple or off-the-shelf solutions. The situation of each business that is considering or is forced to seek the protection afforded to debtors by the bankruptcy or restructuring law is always difficult and varies greatly. In addition, the situation and expectations of the creditors tend to vary extensively. This means that properly assessing the debtor’s and the creditors’ position and selecting an appropriate solution for the client requires expertise, experience and a good understanding of market practices and the industries in which the businesses facing insolvency operate. At DMS we have 15 years of experience in advising clients facing insolvency, representing them in restructuring and bankruptcy proceedings, including proceedings based on international bankruptcy laws. From the very outset of our operations, we have also represented creditors in bankruptcy, restructuring and enforcement proceedings. We also advise investors executing high-risk transactions regarding the possible insolvency of their partners. We have advised on transactions and disputes associated with the largest bankruptcy proceedings in Poland, including procedures involving public companies. Our clients in this area include companies in the insurance, financial, developer, construction, food and white goods sectors, among others. We have successfully represented the creditors of businesses declared bankrupt and entities interested in acquiring assets in bankruptcy and restructuring proceedings. We have earned a reputation as a law firm that proposes creative and unconventional solutions that serve the client’s interests well.
