01 Market intelligence

Inside the Restructuring market.

Our proprietary Titan Crawler AI maps the relevant field first; experienced consultants qualify it by hand. The figures describe the talent market we cover.

2,000+
lawyers with restructuring experience

Restructuring is a market defined by urgency and scarcity. When a company enters distress, the window to assemble the right legal team is narrow, and the practitioners who can lead a Chapter 11 filing, negotiate with an ad hoc committee, or steer a cross-border insolvency are not looking for new roles — they need to be found.

We maintain a living map of 2,000+ lawyers with active restructuring experience, tracked across seniority, deal type, debtor and creditor representations, and sector concentration. This granularity matters: a generalist bankruptcy partner and a practitioner who has run distressed-debt workouts in the energy or retail sectors are not interchangeable, and we do not treat them as such.

Our work in this specialism covers lateral partner moves, counsel and senior associate placements, and rapid-response team builds for firms advising on large-scale insolvencies. Every search is grounded in current market intelligence, not recycled candidate lists.

Restructuring recruitment — common questions

How do you find restructuring lawyers who are not actively looking?

Most senior restructuring practitioners are not on the market in any visible sense. Our research function tracks deal activity, court filings, and lateral movement continuously, so we can identify and approach practitioners whose experience fits a specific mandate — whether debtor-side, creditor-side, or cross-border — before they surface elsewhere.

Can you place restructuring talent quickly when a matter demands it?

Speed is a structural requirement in distressed situations, not a selling point. Because we maintain an up-to-date map of 2,000+ lawyers with restructuring experience, we can move from mandate to qualified longlist in days rather than weeks. Depth of prior research is what makes that possible.

Do you recruit across both debtor and creditor representations?

Yes. Restructuring is a specialism where the side of the table shapes a practitioner's entire profile — the counterparties they have negotiated against, the committees they have advised, and the plan confirmation or liquidation processes they have led. We map and recruit across both orientations and can advise on how that distinction affects candidate pools for a given search.
