What does an insolvency lawyer do?
An insolvency lawyer advises companies, creditors and office holders on financial distress, restructuring, insolvency procedures and debt recovery.
When do you need an insolvency lawyer?
You are likely to need one when a business is in financial difficulty, a customer or supplier becomes insolvent, or you need to recover debts or restructure liabilities. Taking advice early usually costs less than putting things right later.
How do I find a good insolvency lawyer?
Check that they are qualified or registered to practise in the country concerned, for example with the local bar association or professional body, and that they have handled matters like yours, including any cross-border element. Ask who will do the work, which languages they work in and how they charge before you instruct them. Each insolvency lawyer listed on this page has a profile with their firm, practice areas and contact details, so you can compare them before getting in touch.
How much does an insolvency lawyer cost?
Fees depend on the firm, the experience of the person advising you and how complex the matter is. Firms commonly charge by the hour, a fixed fee for a defined piece of work, or a combination of the two. Ask for a written estimate and the terms of engagement before any work starts.
Do I need a lawyer or an adviser for insolvency & restructuring matters?
Use a lawyer for legal advice, contracts and anything that may end up before a court or a regulator. Advisers such as accountants, tax advisers and consultants handle compliance, financial and business advice. Many matters need both, which is why Find an Expert lists both, under the Legal and Advisory specialisms.
