How We Can Help

At Devon-French, our business turnaround professionals are a valuable resource for troubled or distressed medical and dental practices bringing viable solutions.  The majority of our work is debtor based, and in this respect we have an unparalleled reputation for resolving crisis debt issues in the shortest possible time frame. We have found that even the most successful corporate resolution firms take 6 to 9 months, or more, just to complete the initial crisis phase of an assignment. In the present. and  highly volatile economic climate this is not a realistic time frame for your survival. No matter whether debts are business or consumer, creditors are increasingly unwilling to wait that long for turnaround and relief. Most distressed practices are facing issues of crisis indebtedness that require resolution immediately, or not less than 90 days.  Our process of “Assessment, Action and Recovery” is designed to be completed in less than 10 days. Devon-French is unique in meeting the urgent needs of the present environment. Even though each of our engagements has its own unique qualities and service requirements, we have developed an effective system for the rapid resolution of all categories of medical/dental indebtedness.
 
Our primary and immediate goal is to keep our clients out of the bankruptcy court, yet provide most of the benefits and relief associated with a bankruptcy filing. Our service is equally applicable to those practices that are not necessarily troubled but whose future would be jeopardized unless certain issues are addressed without delay. Also, in these uncertain times, every practice needs to have a contingency crisis plan and the services described on this site will play a critical role in your preparedness.Our professionals help facilitate the strategic and operational decisions necessary to restore profitability. Depending on your needs, we offer a flexible approach designed to improve your business operations — and ultimately your financial performance.
