What is it about?
The book begins by establishing the foundations of insolvency law, explaining its historical evolution up to current regulations and the necessary prerequisites to declare insolvency. It then develops, in an orderly manner, each of the phases of the insolvency procedure: from the initial declaration, through the common phase where claims are determined, to possible solutions such as composition with creditors or the liquidation of the bankruptcy estate. It also examines the qualification section, which may determine the debtor's liability, and the processes for the conclusion and reopening of the proceedings. Finally, it dedicates two chapters to pre-insolvency law, analyzing refinancing agreements and out-of-court agreements as mechanisms to avoid declaring insolvency. All of this is presented with a practical vision that seeks to bring the reader closer to the reality of insolvency situations.
