Banking, Insolvency & Receivership

Lindsay Kenney has a team of lawyers with experience in insolvency matters.  Our lawyers are skilled litigators and are able to assist our clients to take all legal steps available to avoid losses on amounts they are owed by other companies or individuals. This includes: 

1. acting for senior secured lenders to appoint a receiver and sell the debtor’s assets to recover the amount owing on the credit facility;
2. representing creditors in formal insolvency proceedings initiated by the debtor under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (BIA) or the Companies Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA);
3. petitioning the debtor into bankruptcy; and
4. negotiating and litigating to obtain resolution of priority disputes among creditors.

We also retained to represent receivers and bankruptcy trustees in insolvency disputes, and to advance court actions aimed at the recovery of assets for the benefit of creditors.  

If you foresee a risk that you will not be repaid amounts you are owed due to an insolvency, you may contact any one of the lawyers below for a consultation.

If we do not have a conflict with our creditor clients, we are also able to assist debtors with restructuring their affairs to obtain relief from debts: see the Restructuring page.
