Depuis plus de 20 ans, elle conseille aussi bien les sociétés et leurs actionnaires, que des créanciers (banques et fonds), des investisseurs ou potentiels acquéreurs, français ou internationaux, dans toutes les situations de difficultés du groupe et de l’entreprise, de la restructuration organisationnelle à l’insolvabilité en passant par la restructuration financière, le corporate finance et les opérations de carve-out. Elle gère également le contentieux lié à ces situations et opérations et a, par ailleurs, développé une pratique en matière d’opérations cross-border paneuropéenne et transatlantique.
