Maximizing recoveries for creditors in a bankruptcy case may arise from various sources, including proceeds from the sale of the debtor’s assets; identifying and recovering funds from any related entities or insiders; and bringing appropriate actions against the directors and officers for inappropriate decisions made, or not made, leading up to a Chapter 11 filing. Our firm has worked in a wide range of industries and has a long track record of results and value creation for creditors.

We take a hands-on approach to all types of workouts, analyzing exposure, negotiating workable solutions, and actively managing the process where needed. The goal is to maximize recoveries while helping to ensure the best possible outcome for our clients in challenging situations. Our commercial real estate (CRE) restructuring focuses on providing lenders and sponsors with unparalleled market insights and strategic guidance. With the primary recovery often coming from the underlying collateral, our debt and real estate expertise drives optimal decision-making and successful results in the complex CRE landscape.

We have developed an end-to-end process to work with clients to understand debt financing needs, develop solutions within both asset-based and cash-flow lending, and assist throughout the debt-raise process to enhance outcomes. Our team comprises individuals with multifaceted experience in the debt advisory space and strong relationships with capital providers, which enables us to work with clients to identify debt solutions to optimize the capital structure and cash flow through all phases of the company lifecycle.

Monetizing assets can be a drawn-out and expensive endeavor. Hiring the right professionals to properly prepare for and execute an asset sale process is critical to maximizing value. We measure our “value-add” based on our track record of success and returns to stakeholders. Our professionals have advised constituents in asset sales, both in-court and out-of-court, in dozens of cases over the decades. Utilizing Section 363 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code to monetize assets is a very powerful tool in maximizing value.
