Borden Ladner Gervais LLP‘s insolvency and restructuring team is led by Roger Jaipargas from Toronto and Isabelle Desharnais in Montréal. Jaipargas is an expert in the retail industry and assists large retailers as well as banks and credit unions in commercial insolvency and restructuring matters. Desharnais is sought out by financial institutions, trustees and accounting firms for her knowledge on commercial insolvencies, financial restructurings and banking litigation. The practice stands out for its excellence in advising financial institutions and banking clients but also has expertise across other sectors such as automotive, construction, private equity, healthcare, real estate and retail. The team has handled a number of cross-border proceedings which involve both Chapter 11 and CCAA proceedings, and has continued to advise clients on Chapter 15 proceedings in the US.
