We offer insolvency advice regarding complex Swedish and cross-border financial restructuring and refinancing. We are regularly appointed by the courts as bankruptcy trustees, administrators and liquidators.

Substantial expertise throughout every stage

Our Restructuring and Insolvency group is a specialist leader in Sweden providing authoritative legal advice and unparalleled experience in insolvency law. We advise companies facing financial issues and payment difficulties. We assist debtors in financial distress with solutions and advice, as well as advising banks, other financiers, and suppliers in which their counterparties are affected by insolvency.

In addition, we are regularly appointed by the courts as bankruptcy trustees and administrators. We have wide-ranging experience in all types of bankruptcies, company reorganisations, informal restructurings and corporate workout in large and small companies whether it be in Sweden or a larger cross-border matter.

In short, our expertise in this area covers all insolvency-related matters, and we have the capacity to handle all types of cases regardless of complexity and size.

Collaboration with banking and finance

Our restructuring and insolvency group distinguishes itself from our competitors by being an integral part of Cirio’s banking and finance group. This generates in-depth knowledge and insight regarding the entire financing cycle: from the initial financing to renegotiations and restructuring of financing arrangements and ultimately to various types of insolvency proceedings. As Cirio is also a full-service firm, we have an unprecedented position in the market resulting from our specialisation within all relevant legal areas and business sectors which we can call on as and when required in larger proceedings or cases.
