Mesirow Financial Consulting said it was named Restructuring Firm of the Year and Turnaround Consulting Firm of the Year for 2012 by the M&A Advisor.
The economic recession and attendant weak credit environment hurt many industries, and the senior living housing market was no exception. When Fairview Ministries, a continuing care retirement community, experienced distress, it retained Mesirow Financial Interim Management, that hired a team of advisors — including restructuring counsel, Ungaretti & Harris — to lead it through a major restructuring that included the rescue of over 500 seniors who faced losing their homes and life savings. The outcome was acknowledged as the Small Transaction of the Year award winner by the TMA’s Chicago/Midwest chapter.
