Biography
Frank Nowee has been working as a lawyer at VBK since 2009 and as a partner since 2017, where he heads the Restructuring & Insolvency team. Frank specialises in restructuring companies and institutions and advising companies (and their management) that are experiencing financial difficulties.
Creditors (or other stakeholders) who are faced with the bankruptcy of a business relation are also assisted by Frank or his team. In addition, Frank is available as a restructuring expert and observer in WHOA proceedings. Finally, Frank is regularly appointed as administrator in moratoriums and as trustee and receiver in bankruptcies.
Before becoming a lawyer, Frank was an independent entrepreneur for many years. He therefore knows what motivates entrepreneurs and how they think. And he understands that a pragmatic solution is often preferable.
