Overview
Alston & Bird’s Special Situations & Capital Solutions Team is a multidisciplinary group of attorneys dedicated to guiding clients through complex, high-stakes, and nonstandard transactions and disputes across different business sectors and geographies. We draw on the experience of our financial restructuring & reorganization, finance and corporate practices, as well as expertise from other key sectors such as financial services, health care transactions, payment systems, and REITs.
Our attorneys advise on debt and equity financings, restructuring and insolvency (including cross-border, multi-jurisdictional restructurings), collateral enforcement proceedings, mergers and acquisitions, and distressed asset transactions. We provide strategic guidance throughout the life cycle of your situation, performing comprehensive reviews of capital structures to clarify legal entitlements, addressing key corporate governance issues and overseeing negotiations and stakeholder interactions.
In these scenarios, counterparties often engage advisors with specialized knowledge—you deserve the same level of preparedness. We reject off-the-rack solutions in favor of bespoke strategies, acting swiftly and decisively when rapid action is required. We also help you identify and capitalize on opportunities arising from distressed investments.
At Alston & Bird, we pride ourselves on partner-level involvement throughout every engagement. We take the time to understand your business objectives and ensure our partners are fully immersed in each transaction, delivering the insight and commitment that define our firm’s approach.
