We advise issuers on amend-extend, exchange offers, collateral upgrades, consent solicitations, minority recaps, and out-of-court restructuring. The objective is straightforward: stabilize liquidity, reduce refinancing risk, and align terms with current cash generation—without court if it can be avoided.
