The ‘pragmatic, resourceful and creative’ team at Mayer Brown International LLP covers the full range of work throughout the distressed curve, from special situations through to formal insolvencies. In both cases the firm is able to draw from broader firmwide complementary resources, including across finance, corporate and pensions, as well as excelling on cross-border mandates where it works well with other global offices. Combining strong commercial instincts with technical knowledge, the ’highly experienced’ Michael Fiddy is very effective at handling complex matters involving multiple stakeholders, including within the real estate sector. The ‘very user-friendly’ Amy Jacks has a versatile practice that includes work for IPs, debtors and creditors. She co-heads the team alongside Fiddy and Devi Shah, who is particularly skilled at handling restructurings in the highly regulated pensions and financial services sectors.
