Bankruptcy and Corporate Reorganization/Rehabilitation

We represent and advise creditors, sponsors, investors and corporate debtors in legal procedures relating to liquidation and rehabilitation, including bankruptcy, special liquidation, civil rehabilitation and corporate reorganization, as well as in "business revitalization ADR", REVIC financing and private and voluntary arrangements that make use of METI and FSA guidelines.

For corporate debtors, we advise on options for rehabilitation, assist in planning and structuring, and provide representation in negotiations with creditors and sponsors. If civil rehabilitation or corporate reorganization is unavoidable, we provide representation with petitions and other procedures. We also leverage our expertise in M&A and finance to advise clients on sales of business assets, company split procedures, mergers, DIP financing, debt-equity swaps, debt-debt swaps and other options. Our experience in supporting debtor corporations ranges from listed company clients to SMEs, in a wide range of industries.

We provide prompt and flexible service in all aspects of preserving and collecting on claims, including (i) negotiations with debtors and provisional remedies preceding liquidation and rehabilitation proceedings, (ii) filings for bankruptcy, (iii) petitions for claim assessment in liquidation and rehabilitation proceedings, and (iv) negotiation and cooperation with trustees and supervisors.
