Restructuring and insolvency are vital corporate management strategies, enabling businesses to optimise operations, ensure smooth transitions in ownership and potentially maximise profits. Ensuring that such measures are enacted efficiently and effectively requires an experienced legal partner with a developed business acumen.

Our team has significant experience in advising financial institutions, statutory bodies, insolvency practitioners, receivers, liquidators, creditors and accountants – as well as regularly acting for businesses in financial difficulties, shareholders, directors and trustees.

CORPORATE MATTERS
Our team advises companies, advisors and insolvency practitioners to enable distressed companies, or as much as possible of these companies, to continue operating with a view to returning to profitability. As part of this, we work with insolvency practitioners, directors and shareholders to identify, agree and put in place corporate reorganisation and reconstruction. Separately we assist interest parties in the management of the restructuring or winding up of entities in such a manner as to ensure the best return possible for creditors and members.
G J Moloney advises creditors, shareholders, guarantors and directors on the many issues which may confront them prior to or during receivership, examinership, provisional liquidation or liquidation.
RECEIVERS
We also advise receivers appointed in respect of companies, residential, commercial and agricultural properties. Our team is engaged in such matters from the outset including the appointment of the receiver and advising them of the powers and duties.

- Reviewing title, planning, leases and other issues and providing title reports to the receiver.
- The sale of the property by way of private sale or auction.

- Management company issues.
- Issues relating to the sale or letting of the property.
