Directors' duties
Periods of financial instability can be stressful and daunting for directors of companies and it is in this context that our practical and commercial advice to directors of businesses of all sizes can be of particular value.
We provide tailored advice on the full range of relevant issues, from one-off transactions to advising directors through a restructuring process or a turnaround situation. We have extensive experience in advising corporates of all sizes during periods of financial difficulties - from owner-managed businesses to international trading groups involving hundreds of separate corporate entities.
This experience enables us to anticipate issues and provide guidance during times of uncertainty. Where regulators or insolvency practitioners seek to pursue claims against directors, then we are able to assist the directors and where appropriate act in the defence of such claims.
We also have specific experience in advising directors of international corporates in relation to both formal insolvencies and also the wind-down and closure of businesses.
