Services
The law firm Hövel & Collegen was founded by attorney Hildegard A. Hövel in 1984. Since 1986, bankruptcy and later insolvency proceedings of all sizes have been handled. The goal is always – where still possible – to continue operations through restructuring or sale. This serves to preserve the economic unit and secure jobs. Creditor interests are also protected through achieving higher distribution rates.

Our office organization is set up to take over insolvency proceedings of companies with ongoing business operations of any size at any time.
