Restructuring & Insolvency
We advise on all aspects of restructuring and insolvency, distressed financing, and recovery strategies.
Restructuring with Resolve, Experience, and Strategic Clarity
Broadfield advises companies, sponsors, creditors, investors, and practitioners on a comprehensive range of restructuring and insolvency matters across industries. We are relied upon in times of crisis and complexity, providing legal clarity, commercial and strategic judgment, and technical precision to safeguard value and foster recovery. Our work spans both distressed and stressed scenarios, ranging from major financial restructurings and workouts to special situations and strategic market transactions, including distressed mergers and acquisitions (M&A).
We are also deeply experienced in managing insolvency procedures and related litigation, as well as strategic wind-downs, subsidiary closures, and reorganizations, where legal, reputational, and investor risks must be carefully managed. Clients trust us to provide clarity, strategic alignment, and rapid execution when the margin for error is narrow. Our fiduciary work includes representing receivers, monitors, and other fiduciary or administrative roles.
