Chambers Review
Vinge has a diverse practice that extends from the management of out-of-court restructuring processes into the representation of creditors in formal insolvencies. The law firm has experience on the debtor side of capital markets issuances undertaken for recapitalisation purposes. It acts for international companies seeking to restructure or liquidate their local Swedish operations, and it assists investment funds or corporate buyers with the acquisition of assets from companies undergoing formal restructuring processes. It also represents both bank lenders and trade creditors in litigation seeking the recovery of debt in insolvent Swedish or foreign-headquartered companies.
