Razvan Albei & Co Law Office ã MMVIII
   Bankruptcy
     Growing business in crisis times ...

       When it comes to a financial crisis and default, you need to act quickly and decisively to preserve value, buy time, achieve stability, seek relief and avoid the effects of insolvency. With bankruptcy looming, you must protect your interests and salvage as much as you can. And where the operating and financial issues cross international borders, the challenge is to develop and execute a coordinated, effective strategy under pressure.

       At Razvan Albei & Co law Office, we understand that in every financial crisis there are windows of opportunity, moments when businesses still can be rescued, rehabilitated or reorganized and when it is possible to stop the erosion of value. And we have the necessary range of legal and business skills – and experience in putting them to work quickly and in a coordinated manner – to help you seize these opportunities.

How We Can Help


  • Risk analysis - We analyze, make recommendations and work on strengthening our clients’ rights in securitizations, loan and security interests and their enforceability, shareholders’ and employment agreements, equipment and property leases, distribution and franchise agreements and other critical relationships.

  • Creditors’/debtors’ rights - We identify creditors’ and debtors’ rights and obligations, provide legal opinion letters and reduce the risks from bankruptcy implications of deals our clients are considering.

  • Workout, turnaround and renewal - As “lawyers to the rescue,” we apply our skills to find solutions and achieve settlements. We negotiate and draft terms of engagement for retained professionals, implement standstills and pursue fast cash collection and other remedies through efficient dispute resolution. We also assist with asset dispositions, mergers and acquisitions.

  • Distressed debt - We represent purchasers and sellers of distressed debt. We help with all aspects of financial restructuring from default to conclusion of a reorganization or liquidation, identifying and exploiting our clients’ leverage.

  • Cross-border representation - We regularly utilize our local resources in many offices to meet the issues arising from businesses transcending jurisdictional boundaries, ranging from acquisition or disposal of companies and assets to information gathering under statutory powers and procedures.

  • Formal bankruptcy/insolvency - We advise those appointed to manage insolvent businesses and protect them from risk. We negotiate arrangements or plans of reorganization with creditors. We maximize returns for clients with strategies to recover assets, combat fraud, break suspect trusts and deliver value wherever possible.

  • Dispute resolution - We represent clients in a wide variety of disputes arising in a financial crisis, and litigate and arbitrate. We prosecute and defend preference, fraudulent conveyance, equitable subordination and substantive consolidation actions.

  • Tax - In conjunction with our tax lawyers, we develop structures and provide bankruptcy tax advice for those concerned with troubled companies.
