We consider ourselves a trusted advisor and strategic partner. We recognize that in the realm of restructuring, this entails more than legal expertise, analysis, or strategy formulation. It involves cultivating a deep understanding of our clients' challenges, providing nuanced advice, and serving as a trusted confidant in shaping pivotal decisions.

Next Generation Talent

2025 Interns

Nurturing and retaining top-tier talent is not just about their expertise but also fostering a mindset that goes beyond traditional roles. A dynamic team, unbound by narrow perspectives, is well-positioned to tackle challenges using innovative approaches. Unleashing the full potential of our talent aligns seamlessly with our broader vision of adopting a more proactive role in anticipating critical financial distress situations before they arise.

Our Story

Pivot > originated from a conversation between friends, Lance Miller and Peter Elkin, both veterans of restructuring and turnaround industries, and former company leaders. Frustrated with the traditional advisory firm model, they sought a better approach centered on client interests and results. Over dinner, they envisioned a best-in-class value proposition, which eventually became Pivot >, attracting like-minded individuals who shared their mission and industry distinctions.

Our core principles include delivering bespoke solutions tailored to each situation, prioritizing long-term client relationships over fees, and fostering the growth and well-being of our employees. Unlike many firms in the industry, we operate under a shared compensation model, ensuring everyone is invested in our clients’ success. As we continue to grow, we remain committed to providing exceptional service and building lasting relationships with our clients.
