Mac Mahon Avocats advises, through its dedicated Morocco Desk based in Paris, companies operating in Tangier on the prevention and treatment of financial distress. The engagement is strictly limited to restructuring advisory: prevention, negotiation, turnaround.
Tangier is northern industrial, port and logistics hub (Tangier Med, free zones). Groups operating there face specific issues: liquidity pressure, bank debt, operational underperformance, capital restructuring, negotiations with local and international financial partners.
The reform of Book V of the Moroccan Commercial Code (distress prevention and treatment) calls for early strategic analysis. The Morocco Desk delivers combined Moroccan-French legal reading whenever the group is exposed to both jurisdictions.
Out of scope: judicial representation before Moroccan courts. For local filings, coordination with counsel admitted to the Tangier or Casablanca bar.
Strategic meetings by video, targeted trips to Tangier for critical phases (bank negotiations, creditor committees), memos in French, English or Arabic depending on recipients.
