Danish Afroz

Lenders, investors, companies, and court-appointed officers trust Danish to navigate complex restructuring and insolvency matters where competing interests, tight timelines, and significant financial exposure require clear judgment and commercially grounded advice. With a background in business, he brings a results-focused approach to mandates involving multiple stakeholders, distressed assets and complex recovery issues. His experience includes lender-side recovery work, including matters where loans are secured by real property, as well as reverse vesting order transactions and other creative restructuring solutions. Clients rely on him to manage complex files, assess risk, and develop strategies that are both legally sound and commercially practical.

Danish’s practice focuses on corporate restructurings, receiverships, security enforcement, and distressed transactions. He acts for debtors, secured and unsecured creditors, financial institutions, purchasers and court-appointed officers. His experience includes mandates involving bankruptcies, proposals, receiverships, debtor-in-possession financings, security enforcement, and distressed M&A, as well as complex corporate restructurings under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA) . He advises Canadian and international clients across sectors, including financial services, manufacturing, retail, renewable energy, mining, cannabis, technology, transportation, logistics, and real estate.
