  • Issues affecting suppliers and their impact on the restructuring process
  • How real estate issues affect the restructuring process, especially for “free fall” bankruptcy cases
  • Recent retail intercreditor disputes and litigation
  • Assessment of legacy retailers adopting an e-commerce platform
