Reorganisation, restructuring and insolvency

Not all companies can be saved through insolvency proceedings. But if we see that there is a chance – no matter how slight – we make sure to take it. Using the various mechanisms and routes permitted by modern insolvency law, we find the right solutions to pave a way out of the crisis. Our approach in this field is based on our many years of experience, our commitment to treating the involved parties with due respect, our personal dedication, our professionalism and our pronounced social skills.

We prioritise economically sound, socially responsible, balanced solutions that serve to protect the interests of all parties. Saving jobs is especially important to us in this regard.

Our entire team regularly undergoes further training measures to ensure that our staff continually build on their expertise. Our specialist knowledge is therefore always up to date.
