Turnaround Advisory Services

For under-performing companies, survival demands a clear path to results and the leadership to ensure the path is taken.

As a business owner, you face an increasing array of challenges, from rapid technological changes to heightened competition and global economic uncertainty. Many companies struggle to keep up with the changing business environment, particularly if they are over-leveraged and burdened with debt service.

We offer assistance to companies in difficult situations. Working directly with company management, we work to understand the situation first and then to make recommendations that address the issues.

We strive to implement turnaround strategies that avoid Bankruptcy Court proceedings. Due to the enormous costs, both in terms of the company’s loss of reputation and the expenses associated with the Bankruptcy process, we will leave no stone unturned in finding alternatives to a Bankruptcy filing.

During restructuring situations, we will assist you in negotiations with lenders, debt holders and other stakeholders in a way that builds consensus and facilitates progress. We navigate the challenging capital markets as we work with you to improve your business both operationally and financially. And we devise and implement new, solid capital structures designed to support the goals of the turnaround and beyond.
