We are the trusted advisors for:
Business owners
Our expertise helps leadership of private and public companies through a variety of financial services including: turning around distressed operations, improving profitability and cash flow, obtaining new bank financing, attracting additional investors, navigating litigation, insolvency or bankruptcy, and buying or selling businesses. We preserve owners equity, create value, and save jobs.
Bankers
We work with banks to maximize loan recoveries from financially troubled borrowers. We assist lenders in gathering reliable financial information, identifying hidden problems like fraud, protecting collateral assets, and developing detailed analysis to determine the best workout strategy. Often, we assist their borrowers in finding new financing sources, or restore them to financial health so the bank can retain them as a customer.
Attorneys
We help attorneys deliver financial justice by providing bullet proof analysis and expert testimony in commercial and civil litigation matters. Our findings are often used to provide the basis for settlement negotiations which are conveyed in a clear and concise manner, all supported by both fact and theory. As a result, our clients are more effective at risk assessment thereby creating better than anticipated financial results.
Creditor committees
We help creditor committees maximize recoveries in Chapter 7 or 11 bankruptcy. We serve as financial advisors to committees by identifying issues impacting recoveries; identifying alternate recovery strategies; evaluating plans and budgets; monitoring liquidity, collections and operations; investigating causes of action; and facilitating sale or financing transactions.
CEOs and CFOs
We deliver a high-touch service focus to organizations and their strategic issues: growth; technology investment and enablement; transformation; the customer experience; mergers, acquisitions, and integration. We clarify your complex issues and challenges: craft solutions that fit; simplify decisions; streamline communications – leading to clear and effective action.
Private Equity
We work with Private Equity firms to provide a fresh perspective on operational enhancements, identifying best practices from other industry leaders, provide a hands on resource to asset management duties and develop strategies for capital restructuring and creditor relationships with the goal of maximizing stakeholders equity.
