Restructuring and insolvency proceedings

Insolvency proceedings

There are three types of insolvency proceedings: safeguard, receivership, and compulsory liquidation. Though entrepreneurs often consider them a form of failure, these proceedings nevertheless present a real tool to either allow the company to survive or bring it to an end in an organised way.

Particularly sensitive to the questions asked by companies experiencing difficulties, we at TERRILLON AVOCATS advise and support our Clients to help them understand their situation, especially during the state of suspension of payments. In this sense, we draft Declarations of Cessation of Payments.

The current health situation has affected many companies. Our team can help you through this crisis by preparing an analysis of the health of your company in order to apply the most viable corrective solutions.

By setting up certain procedures (conciliation, safeguard, receivership), the company can benefit from delayed payments, liability freezes, court rulings to prevent asset seizure, moratoria on lease terminations, debt renegotiation and reduction, payroll guarantees, payroll reduction, etc. 

We also work with the creditors of insolvent companies, in particular with statements of claim, contesting the actual date of cessation of payments, filing actions for orders to contribute to the company’s assets, etc.

In addition, we support and represent Clients interested in taking over a company in reorganisation or liquidation through all phases of the process. 

At TERRILLON AVOCATS, we assist our Clients in English, French, and Polish.
