What We Do

When a company must wind down outside bankruptcy — faster, at lower cost, with higher creditor recoveries.

Our flagship practice. CMBG is the most experienced ABC firm in California — serving as assignee to wind down insolvent companies faster, at lower cost, and with higher creditor recoveries than traditional bankruptcy.

When a secured creditor controls the collateral and speed and cost matter.

Public and private secured-party sales, UCC foreclosures and loan-to-own transactions designed to maximize collateral value and provide a faster, lower-cost alternative to bankruptcy, receivership or an ABC.

When a court or a lender needs an independent fiduciary in control of the business.

Fiduciary management that brings order, transparency, and accountability to distressed entities — working alongside courts and stakeholders to protect and maximize value.

When there is still time to preserve options, before the facts force a harder outcome.

Comprehensive restructuring, workout, and strategic planning support for companies and stakeholders trying to preserve optionality before the facts force a harder outcome.

When the path runs through Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 — for debtors, trustees, lenders and counsel.

Chapter 7 and Chapter 11 support for debtors, trustees, lenders, committees, and counsel managing cash pressure, sale execution, claims, and court-supervised process design.

When assets have to be monetized — in court, out of court, or through a secured creditor.

Corporate liquidation services across Chapter 7, ABC, out-of-court, and secured-creditor processes, with disciplined monetization and stakeholder transparency.

When the business can still be fixed and needs hands-on operating support to do it.

Hands-on turnaround and performance improvement for middle-market companies, lenders, and stakeholders navigating underperformance, distress, and operational complexity.
