Province

What Province does

Province is a privately held, Henderson, Nevada-based financial advisory firm founded in 2008 by Paul Huygens and Paul Hamilton. The firm delivers senior-led advisory services across four core practice areas: Restructuring Advisory (creditor committee advisory, debtor advisory, CRO/interim management, mass tort advisory); Disputes, Investigations and Risk Advisory (forensic accounting, expert testimony, compliance); Capital Markets (M&A execution, valuation, capital raising for institutional investors and PE/credit funds); and Office of the CFO (interim management, strategic planning, operational efficiency). Province serves middle-market and large corporations, creditors' committees, institutional investors, law firms, trustees, and government agencies through project-based mandates requiring direct senior involvement throughout the engagement.

The firm's underlying technology layer is centered on the Province Applied Intelligence Lab, launched in June 2026 as the platform for AI and advanced-technology integration across client engagements and internal operations. Revenue is generated through engagement-based professional services fees, hourly billing, and retainer arrangements typical of boutique restructuring and forensic advisory firms. Distribution is direct, senior-led enterprise field sales with no intermediary channels; demand generation relies on industry awards, professional referrals from law firms and financial institutions, and thought leadership at industry conferences.

Following the February 2026 acquisition of StoneTurn, Province operates as a combined platform of 300+ professionals across 19 offices on five continents, integrating restructuring expertise with forensic, disputes and risk advisory capabilities. The firm is backed by private equity sponsor Trivest Partners, which made a strategic capital investment in July 2024, and has previously acquired Solution Trust (2014) and O'Keefe (2025) to extend its capabilities. Province has been ranked #1 financial advisor to unsecured creditors' committees by Debtwire every year since 2018 and #1 most-retained UCC advisor by Octus in 2025, with a client roster spanning retail, healthcare, energy, real estate, telecommunications and gaming engagements.
