Overview
Specialist expertise in financial distress. We navigate complex insolvency matters to preserve value and create stability.
Few situations demand as much of a legal adviser as insolvency. Martiq is experienced counsel for companies, boards of directors and creditors in restructurings, bankruptcies and other insolvency matters — with a focus on preserving value where it still exists.
Our work
We advise boards of directors on balance-sheet assessments and personal liability, act as counsel to companies in corporate restructuring, and represent creditors seeking to maximise the dividend in a bankruptcy.
Typical engagements
- Corporate restructuring under the Company Reorganisation Act
- Directors' liability in cases of capital deficiency and insolvency
- Bankruptcy monitoring and creditor representation
- Clawback disputes and unlawful value transfers
- Acquisitions of businesses and assets in connection with insolvency
Strategic value
In insolvency situations, hours matter rather than days. We are accustomed to delivering clear recommendations under pressure — and to standing by the board of directors when called upon.
