Insolvency Law and Restructuring

When a company becomes distressed, the risk landscape often changes significantly for its stakeholders. The priority then becomes securing economic assets for owners, creditors, and other stakeholders, as well as safeguarding jobs for employees. For management, it is about restructuring the company with a focus on continued operation.

To ensure the restructuring of the company and minimise potential losses, it is important to involve experts who base their approach on a strong professional foundation and deliver a tailored solution within often tight deadlines.

Plesner’s Restructuring and Insolvency team is one of the most experienced teams in Denmark. We counsel distressed companies, lenders, and other creditors, as well as owners, based on a solid foundation of expertise and experience. Regardless of the type of case, we always focus on progress and handling commercial interests in a proper and effective manner. We develop and execute the relevant strategy in close dialogue with key stakeholders.

Our advice is designed to ensure that all relevant stakeholders receive the necessary legal, strategic, and commercial guidance that best addresses the complex challenges associated with restructuring or insolvency proceedings.

Major financial restructurings and bankruptcies impact almost all legal disciplines. We have an uncompromising team-based approach, involving other specialisation areas as needed. This means we can quickly assemble a competent specialist team from areas including Banking and Finance, Employment and Labour Law, Real Estate, Construction, and M&A.

We provide highly specialised legal advice in the most complex cases. At Plesner, we have developed a process that ensures the distressed company a swift, efficient, and value-creating procedure.

We have extensive specialist knowledge in all relevant areas, and our dedicated focus on solid teamwork has been key to achieving our current position with a strong track record that includes the largest and most complicated bankruptcies involving Danish assets both nationally and internationally.
