RESTRUCTURING

Our Restructuring practice excels in guiding lenders, financial sponsors, investors, and corporations through financial restructuring and reorganization. We have been pivotal in some of the largest restructuring transactions in the Greek market, particularly within Greek pre-bankruptcy processes.

We regularly assist lenders with corporate restructuring, enforcement of liquid and illiquid securities, and fixed assets. Our expertise extends to advising on acquisitions of performing and non-performing loan portfolios, focusing on enforcement proceedings, court restructurings, and liquidation processes.

We help clients achieve their commercial goals with practical and sustainable structures that comply with complex restructuring legislation. Our deep local knowledge and extensive international experience make us well-equipped for cross-border transactions requiring multi-jurisdictional coordination.

Our industry experience spans finance, leisure and hospitality, real estate, energy, infrastructure, gaming, food, technology, and telecoms.
