Insolvency and restructuring
Thousands of companies become insolvent each year due to a range of factors that can lead to trading issues. In fact, it is estimated that almost 5,000 companies became insolvent in Australia in FY22.
Insolvency and restructuring can be complex, involving stringent regulatory considerations, competing stakeholder interests, and often operational and financial impacts.

Corporate financial distress and insolvency
Economic headwinds, unexpected downturns, personal trauma, or cash flow issues are dynamic events that can trigger or heighten the risk of insolvency for businesses.
While they can disrupt the working capital available to your business, trading issues and insolvency indicators like these are accumulative and typically occur over time, which means they are often identifiable and can be remedied.
Engaging a specialised insolvency lawyer at the onset of events widens the options available to address your business' financial challenges, helping you to navigate with greater confidence and certainty.
Lander & Rogers' specialist lawyers provide strategic insolvency advice to help you preserve enterprise value and provide support when your business is at risk of insolvent trading.
