Ogier's global Restructuring and Insolvency team routinely acts on cross-border liquidations, receiverships and restructurings involving overseas insolvency practitioners and clients with a variety of offshore financial interests.

Our teams in BVI, Cayman, Guernsey, Jersey, Hong Kong, Ireland and Luxembourg advise insolvency professionals, fund managers, administrators, auditors, banks, financial intermediaries, corporate investors and trustees in respect of claims, duties and practical solutions. We have extensive experience of advising on alternatives to traditional bankruptcy and restructuring methods for clients who insist on efficient service and higher returns.

We regularly advise in conjunction with onshore counsel and are able to provide round-the-clock advice across our network of offices in the Asian, Caribbean and European timezones.

Our Banking and Finance and Corporate teams act on major non-contentious restructurings, working with our Dispute Resolution teams on contentious matters.

Five things to know about Ogier's cross jurisdictional Restructuring and Insolvency team

Ogier has one of the largest and most experienced Restructuring and Insolvency teams of any firm across our jurisdictions, with the capacity to take on the most demanding and complex cross-border matters.

Our team includes some of the foremost names in offshore insolvency practice, including partners who worked through the 2008 financial crisis and subsequent restructuring and insolvency work.

We have acted in some of the largest and most complex matters in recent years, including Ocean Rig, Abraaj, Toys R Us and Carlyle Capital Corporation.

Ogier's insolvency specialists include members of the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners (STEP), the Association of Restructuring and Insolvency Experts (ARIES), INSOL International, the Recovery and Insolvency Specialists Association of the Cayman Islands (RISA), the Insolvency Lawyers’ Association, and the Association of Business Recovery Professionals (R3).

Our teams are made up of finance, corporate and disputes specialists, advising companies, lenders and creditors.

Five things to know about Ogier

We regularly win major industry awards for the quality of our work and our people – including from Chambers, STEP, and Legal Week, and have been recognised by IFLR as one of the world's top "31 Law Firms to Watch".

With BVI and Cayman admitted lawyers in Europe and Asia, our teams can collaborate across timezones to offer a true 24 service to clients.

Nine of our practices are ranked as best in their jurisdiction and we have the capacity, the knowledge and expertise to handle the most demanding and complex transactions.
