Business Rescue & Restructuring.Turnaround advisory and formal restructuring under UAE insolvency law.

Why this matters

UAE Federal Decree-Law 51 of 2023 (the Bankruptcy Law) gave debtors and creditors a clearer route through preventive composition, restructuring, and bankruptcy. The new law sits alongside DIFC and ADGM insolvency regimes that have operated for longer. We act for debtors, secured creditors, and unsecured creditors across all three.
