Distressed M&A

Our experience of acting for vendors, either within or outside of insolvency processes, in distressed situations gives us the edge when advising purchasers. We understand the processes, the negotiation dynamics and the commercial needs and don’t needs so that we can meet a purchaser’s objectives of being able to assess risk and complete a deal quickly if necessary.

Due to our long standing relationships with a number of well-known insolvency practitioners we also exactly know their needs, threats and restrictions when selling a business. We are able to use our wide range of experiences for both sellers and purchasers in a Distressed M&A transaction.

Recent notable engagements include:

  • Representing Borgers AG, a leading automotive supplier, in the acquisition of the Isolation Business of Aksys GmbH out of insolvency
  • Representing an investor in the acquisition of the business of rosner Fashion GmbH out of insolvency
