(Leading lawyers)Philip Dublin – Akin
The team at Akin brings high-level expertise to complex bankruptcy matters, especially in the New York market, with a client base encompassing ad-hoc groups, companies and debtors to creditor committees, and large investors involved in multi-billion dollar restructurings. The US-based restructuring team benefits from the firm’s strong cross-border links with teams in Asia and Europe which assist in large and complex deals for large multinational companies, including on a recent matter in which Philip Dublin acted as special counsel for an ad-hoc group of Cineworld’s secured lenders to advise on negotiations with Cineworld on a restructuring plan and support with its Chapter 11 filing. Heading the global practice is Ira Dizengoff, who is regarded as a preeminent figure in the restructuring space for his involvement in high profile distressed and bankruptcy-related matters, alongside specialties in corporate restructurings, creditors’ committees and bondholder committee cases. Abid Qureshi is noted for his key focus on bankruptcy litigation. Washington DC-based Scott Alberino represents a wide range of groups in distressed transactions including creditor committees and equity holders, and Sara Brauner and Naomi Moss are also highly recommended. Unless otherwise stated, all mentioned lawyers are based in New York.
