HOW TO BEGIN:

PRE-ASSESSMENT

bullet We offer an initial meeting, at no charge, to a prospective client. We explain why we need to review and understand the specifics and the uniqueness of the organization and the particulars of the situation that got them there in the first place.
bullet Then we review the significant components of a company. How much is owed to whom and amount in arrears? What is the financial composition of the company? Secured versus unsecured debt? Debt versus equity? Recent financial/operational performance factors that precipitated meeting in first place? Goals of owners? Support of creditors?
bullet Finally we’ll “craft” an approach that provides a reasoned and independent evaluation of the options appropriate to insolvency resolution.

ASSESSMENT

bulletWe initiate a second meeting to present this written assessment of options under consideration, offer recommended approaches, disclose cost of services, usually fixed-fee, all-inclusive, and the estimated duration of the transitional process.

POST-ASSESSMENT

bulletIf we feel there is a chance for survival (including the formation of a new entity) we’ll suggest a new foundation upon which the client can re-build.
bulletIf we believe that an ABC, Receivership, or Intermediation best serves the principals, the creditors, and the process itself, we will recommend such and serve as the Assignee or the Receiver.       
bullet Should circumstances warrant a chapter 7 or chapter 11 filing, we’ll recommend that course of action and refer the client, if so desired, to a bankruptcy attorney of proven integrity and competence.
