‘The multi-disciplinary approach is what sets the CMS restructuring and insolvency team apart. CMS is able to deal with restructuring holistically – advising on all legal areas that pertain to restructuring such as court restructuring, formal insolvency proceedings, corporate matters, employment, commercial contracts, real estate, etc. CMS is also capable of managing region-wide restructuring transactions from Romania (it has English law capability on the ground for both finance and corporate matters). The CMS Romanian restructuring and insolvency team is also fully integrated in the global restructuring practice of CMS and frequently works together with partners in other jurisdictions on cross-border restructurings of regional groups.’
