Crisis Management and
Corporate Structuring

Some problems are too urgent, too complex or too sensitive to handle in the ordinary course of business, and some changes to a business are too significant to leave to chance. Inrigo's Crisis Management and Corporate Structuring vertical handles both. For each engagement we assemble a dedicated team drawn from our network of lawyers, finance professionals, auditors, operational specialists and industry advisers, sized to the situation and led by a single point of accountability at Inrigo. Financial and management-related work is delivered through our sister entity, Inrigo Solutions, together with our financial advisors, working alongside the legal team. The client deals with one team working to one plan, rather than managing a crowd of separate advisers.

When clients call us

Businesses usually come to us when events are moving faster than management can respond. Typical situations include a division that is draining the group's resources, a change of ownership that has left gaps in control, a bank that has frozen payments or withdrawn facilities, a key supplier or customer threatening to walk away, a dispute that has suddenly escalated to the courts, or a public controversy that puts the brand at risk.

How an engagement works

Every crisis mandate follows the same broad sequence. First, we establish the facts quickly, working out what has happened, what is at stake and which risks need attention in the next days rather than months. Second, we contain the situation by securing assets, protecting cash, preserving evidence and making sure the right people hold authority. Third, we resolve the underlying problem, whether through negotiation, restructuring, regulatory engagement or legal proceedings. Finally, we help the business put in place the governance, contracts and controls it needs so the same problem does not return.

What our teams deliver

On the legal side, Inrigo handles urgent proceedings and enforcement before the UAE courts, engagement with regulators and licensing authorities, coordination of disputes and advisers across several countries, and the renegotiation of commercial relationships with suppliers, subcontractors, banks and counterparties. On the financial and management side, Inrigo Solutions and our financial advisors lead financial review, cash-flow planning, cost and performance analysis, and operational recovery. Together, the teams manage communications with banks, regulators, employees and the public, so that every stakeholder hears one consistent message.

Why Inrigo

Crises and structural change seldom fall neatly into one discipline. We combine legal expertise with commercial and operational judgement, work closely with the authorities and institutions that matter in the UAE, move at the pace the situation demands, and stay involved until the job is done. Clients get discretion, clear communication and a team that answers to them.
