See Overview

Insolvency
If you're facing a time of personal or corporate financial crisis you need advice from someone who listens, who understands your specific issues and deals with them in a supportive and sensitive manner.
Crisis stabilisation and turnaround
In periods of financial distress, management teams often face considerable challenges, with many directors having little or no experience of similar conditions.
Operational and financial restructuring
Companies challenged by underperformance often need support in identifying options for financial or operational restructuring. Tapping this type of advice helps them create a stable platform for business turnaround.
Accelerated M & A
Even fundamentally sound businesses run into difficulties. Cash flow can come under pressure from the loss of a big client, or a dip in performance can threaten a breach of banking covenants if there is insufficient headroom.
