Our expertise
Insolvency & Restructuring
With years of experience in assisting companies experiencing financial difficulties, our Insolvency & Restructuring team is the leading team in the Dutch Caribbean.
Our approach to any request for advice or assistance is characterized by our clients as thorough and hands on. We work closely together with the experts in our Banking & Finance and Corporate/M&A teams.
We assist clients whose businesses find themselves in financial distress and in need of restructuring as well as assisting lenders of such parties. In such situations, a vast number of risks converge at the same time that need to be addressed and quickly so. Our expertise lies in advising on and management of all types of restructuring/liquidation and insolvency-related issues in the broadest sense of the word.
The experts within our Insolvency & Restructuring team also regularly act as Court appointed bankruptcy receivers in insolvencies with a local as well as a more international connotation like -recently- the bankruptcies of the Curacao branch of Lehman Brothers, the Curacao based bank with Venezuelan roots, Banco del Orinoco N.V. and the local airline company Insel Air.
