‘Conversant with products and debt structures right the way through the capital structure’, Hogan Lovells Cadwalader's restructuring practice has gained most traction for private funds clients either where they were involved in the original finance which has become stressed or in the context of hybrid capital solutions to realise value in distressed scenarios. ’Smooth operator’ Bevis Metcalfe is the principal contact for this work and is noted for his ‘incredible technical and strategic skill’. Metcalfe co-heads the team alongside Gregory Petrick, who splits his time between London and New York.
