Our family-owned manufacturing business in Philadelphia faced a severe liquidity crisis that threatened its survival. We were referred to Geneviève Cloutier at Gowling WLG, and her expertise in insolvency and financial restructuring law was immediately apparent. While her primary practice is in Montréal, her understanding of cross-border financial issues and her strategic approach were perfectly suited to our situation. She guided us through a complex debt restructuring, negotiating with multiple creditors and helping us develop a viable turnaround plan. Her recognition by Best Lawyers in this specific field gave us significant confidence from the outset. Geneviève was thorough, patient in explaining complex legal and financial concepts, and genuinely invested in finding a solution that preserved the business and jobs. The outcome was a successful restructuring that has allowed our company to stabilize and begin a path to recovery. If there was one minor critique, it would be that communication response times could occasionally be delayed, likely due to her demanding caseload and cross-border practice. However, when we did connect, her attention was complete and her advice was invaluable. We highly recommend her for any business facing similar financial distress.
