Restructuring & Insolvency law firms in Africa.

Business rescue, liquidations, debt restructuring, workouts and creditor advisory.

Restructuring and insolvency law covers the rescue, reorganisation and winding-up of financially distressed businesses, as well as creditor enforcement and debt recovery. South Africa's Companies Act introduced a modern business-rescue regime alongside traditional liquidation; Nigeria's CAMA 2020 introduced administration, company voluntary arrangements and netting provisions; OHADA's Uniform Act on collective proceedings governs francophone restructurings. Lawyers act for debtors, creditors, banks, business-rescue practitioners and insolvency office-holders on workouts, schemes of arrangement, distressed-asset acquisitions and cross-border insolvency recognition.
