Brazil > Restructuring and insolvency

Cescon Barrieu has a versatile restructuring and insolvency practice that represents debtors and creditors. Judicial reorganisations, DIP financings, distressed M&A, and debt restructurings are all core areas of activity for the department, which is jointly led by Alexandre Gossn Barreto, who is strong on the banking side, and Rio de Janeiro-based disputes partner Cinthia de Lamare. Following the departure of former practice head Fábio Rosas and José Luis de Rosa in late 2022, the restructuring and insolvency team was reinforced in May 2023 by the promotion of Esther Slud to partner and the recruitment of Daniel Longa from Enforce, both of whom are skilled in credit restructuring and credit recovery matters.
