Carson Fischer is recognized as a leader in business reorganization and commercial bankruptcy, providing services to businesses ranging in size from $10 million to in excess of a billion dollars in annual sales. Our firm represents debtor companies, creditors’ committees, individual creditors, and shareholders and other equity interests, in restructurings, whether out-of-court or in bankruptcy proceedings. Carson Fischer's attorneys have represented clients not only in the bankruptcy courts in Michigan, but also in Arkansas, California, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, New York, Ohio and Tennessee. Our firm has also provided counsel to Canadian entities in cross-border restructurings. Carson Fischer directs its restructuring and bankruptcy efforts across the spectrum of American businesses. Our restructuring services have been utilized in a wide array of industries, ranging from manufacturing, retail and service industries, to real estate development and finance. Typical clients include privately held, entrepreneur-led firms, but our clients have also included large, publicly traded companies. With our location in southeastern Michigan, the nerve center for our nation’s automotive original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), Carson Fischer has developed a sophisticated practice and extensive expertise in representing large Tier One and Tier Two automotive suppliers to the OEMs, and their creditors, in restructurings both in Chapter 11 proceedings and out-of-court. We are the preeminent firm in reorganization and bankruptcy in the automotive industry, having represented more clients in this sector than any firm in the United States. In representing first and second tier suppliers in connection with their relationships with the largest OEMs in the world, including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda and Nissan, we have distinguished ourselves in addressing complex legal and business issues. In this highly intense and competitive arena, we have succeeded in protecting and enhancing our clients’ interests. The goal of Carson Fischer in representing distressed debtors, or creditors, is to maintain enterprise value, through preservation of customer base, stabilization of secured and unsecured creditors, enhancement of management, and respect for equity interests. Whether representing debtors or creditors, Carson Fischer recognizes the importance of early intervention and analysis to identify the necessary “fixes” for rectifying financial problems. Where possible, the emphasis remains on out-of-court proceedings, where time and costs are minimized and value enhanced. However, in those instances where bankruptcy proceedings are required, the same principles apply equally. Carson Fischer’s reorganization partners average more than twenty-five years of practice experience. Carson Fischer is well-respected as a knowledgeable and practical advocate by major lenders, creditors, customers, financial consultants, and counsel. Our attorneys can “speak the language,” so as to efficiently communicate our client’s position and to reassure interested parties that enterprise value will be maintained and that all constituent interests will be respected and dealt with in a fair and professional manner. In those circumstances which require bankruptcy proceedings, Carson Fischer is adept at navigating these legal waters, having successfully represented a multitude of business debtors before the nation’s Bankruptcy Courts. Our attorneys have published topical commentaries and frequently lecture to professional audiences on various aspects of reorganization and bankruptcy. In addition, our attorneys have been honored by their peers with various professional accolades, including listings among the Best Lawyers in America, Michigan Super Lawyers and being annual award recipients of the Turnaround Management Association (TMA). Financial distress does not permit less than immediate and insightful response. Carson Fischer delivers that response utilizing our many years of experience gained in numerous noteworthy representations. Industries Served:
