"In bankruptcy, retention can be key to maintaining ongoing business and shareholder values."
-Margaret Black, Managing Director
There are several reasons why a corporation might find itself in financial distress: market instability, the cyclicality of certain industry sectors, executive mismanagement, or extraordinary circumstances outside a company’s control.
Once you've made the decision to restructure, or even if it's an option on the horizon, you have to focus on the retention of key employees. How they are compensated before a bankruptcy filing, during the bankruptcy, and post-bankruptcy is critical to successful emergence.
We are an experienced partner and can help you develop the right compensation strategy to meet changing short- and long-term business goals.
