David Ereira > Paul Hastings LLP > London, England > Lawyer Profile

Leveraging the firm’s vastly enhanced acquisition finance offering, which has included a spate of eye-catching lateral hires over the past 18 months, and also itself benefitting from considerable upward trajectory – with Helena Potts  the latest recent hire to the restructuring team (following her arrival in February 2023 from Shearman & Sterling LLP) – Paul Hastings LLP is increasingly well-positioned and well-resourced to handle a significant range of instructions, from insolvent liquidations to consensual restructurings and new money opportunities. As well as handling European and domestic mandates, the team, which is headed by the vastly experienced David Ereira  is well-placed to advise on the unwinding of US debt products, as well as having the flexibility to utilise Chapter 11 protection  by virtue of its US offices. Mei Lian is well-versed at handling transactional work in the space, including for funds seeking to realise value in stressed and distressed situations.
