quick, cost effective solutions for construction businesses in
distress
The team can also provide advice to businesses in distress.
We live in 'interesting' times. The news changes from day-to-day
and it is hard to predict where the financial crisis will take us,
what sort of economic downturn we may see, how long it will last,
the level of credit which will be available and at what cost.
These are not times for a 'one size' fits all solution. The
current economic circumstances present real opportunities for some
businesses and of course challenges for many others. At Blake
Lapthorn, we understand these opportunities and challenges. We have
the necessary experience and resources to handle efficiently and
effectively issues relating to:
- refinancing
- funding solutions (which these days often have to be creative
and accessed from less conventional sources)
- acquisitions (on which we will produce short, commercially
focussed legal reports when they are needed)
So what's different about us? At Blake Lapthorn, whoever we act
for, we can take a pragmatic and commercial approach. We know that
solutions need to be swift and cost effective. We seek consensus
not confrontation. We focus on the key issues. We get deals done on
time and on budget.
