Bankruptcy and Transactions Restructuring

Partner

Shari Dwoskin is a partner in Brown Rudnick’s Bankruptcy & Transactions Restructuring Practice Group. She has worked on some of the country’s largest recent bankruptcy cases, representing unsecured creditors’ committees, tort victims, bondholders, equity interest holders, and reorganized debtors in Chapter 11 restructurings, litigation arising from related disputes, and out-of-court wind-downs.

Shari has experience with negotiating restructuring support agreements, plans, and DIPs; plan confirmation trials; valuation; avoidance actions; bankruptcy auctions; the claims resolution process; 363 sales; and related litigation.

Shari is an active member of the International Women’s Insolvency and Restructuring Confederation, serving as Vice-Director of Regional Programming. She also maintains an active pro bono practice, providing legal advice to women- and minority-owned small businesses, representing individual Chapter 7 debtors, and helping Boston residents seal criminal records. She led the representation of Massachusetts Law Reform Institute, achieving an important constitutional law victory when the court held that the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families violated the due process rights of families by denying fair hearings in “substantiated concern” cases.
