Restructuring & Insolvency

Walder Wyss has a proven track record in corporate and financial restructuring. We manage both national and complex international cases, providing comprehensive legal services for strategic and financial restructuring as well as advice on non-performing business transactions.

We advise the interest groups involved with regard to Swiss insolvency and bankruptcy proceedings, and also support foreign borrowers when launching and coordinating parallel and ancillary proceedings under Swiss insolvency law. In addition, we enforce claims against assets located in Switzerland.

Our restructuring and insolvency team plays an active role in its clients’ affairs. This applies both to out-of-court financial and debt restructuring as well as to court proceedings such as moratoriums under company law, standstill agreements and bankruptcy proceedings.

  • "Very well established cross-border expertise and a profound understanding of German insolvency and restructuring proceedings."
