About
Provided by Thomas Hoffmann
Practice Areas
Thomas Hoffmann has been advising companies in distressed situations and during insolvency proceedings for over 20 years. He co-heads Noerr's Restructuring and Insolvency practice group together with Martin Kleinschmitt, CEO of Noerr Consulting AG.
His typical instructions include bridge and restructuring financing on the basis of restructuring plans that meet the requirements of the German Federal Court of Justice as well as the restructuring of syndicated loans or listed bonds. The preparation and, if necessary, implementation of insolvency (plan) restructurings in self-administration proceedings on debtor’s side is just as much a part of his advisory activities as the representation and analysis of restructurings in the interests of shareholders or creditors.
Thomas is a managing director of Team Treuhand GmbH, a Noerr company which offers services in distressed situations, e.g. as a restructuring shareholder in a dual-benefit trust, a security trustee or a joint representative of bond creditors under the German Bonds Act. Further, Thomas is also a member of the board of directors at Noerr Consulting AG.
He is the author of numerous specialist publications and regularly gives lectures on current restructuring issues.
