Proskauer has long provided strategic advice to help investors, lenders, and companies structure and execute challenging, complex special-situations transactions. Our integrated Financial Restructuring and Special Situations team includes lawyers across private credit, restructuring, private equity, structured equity, M&A, securities, litigation, and tax, working together to deliver seamless, end-to-end solutions tailored to each matter.

We represent investment funds, private credit lenders, and distressed investors pursuing special situations or credit opportunities and seeking attractive risk-adjusted returns on debt and equity investments in middle-market companies globally. These strategies typically involve distressed companies, companies in out-of-favor, or specialized industries undergoing restructurings or recapitalizations, or companies with unusual or hard-to-value assets.

These transactions require sophisticated, highly experienced, and creative counsel. Our cross-trained team understands private credit, private equity, creditors’ rights, and bankruptcy, helping investors and creditors assess complex structures from multiple angles and bring fresh thinking to the issues.
