    Too Many Hats in the Ethical Ring: When Insiders, Affiliates, Friends, and Family Show Up All Over a Restructuring
    In the bankruptcy universe, business enterprises with closely-held capital structures and intersecting interests will engage counsel, who must immediately face a set of thorny ethical issues. In “small” cases and “big,” the very nature of closely-held companies may involve pre- and post-petition lenders, equity sponsors, and significant unsecured creditors that may be affiliates of one another and of the debtor itself. What is a careful lawyer to do?
