San Francisco, California, United States
Attorney with 14+ years of experience in insolvency law and restructuring matters. I have represented clients from all positions in the insolvency space, both inside and outside of bankruptcy: debtors, creditors, committees, purchasers, assignees and trustees, as well as plaintiffs and defendants in litigation to recover preferential and fraudulent transfers. My prior representations cover many industries, including energy, technology, aviation, hospitality, manufacturing, construction, wine, recreation, and entertainment. • I help distressed businesses navigate and execute the complex options available to them, including chapter 11 bankruptcy, general assignments for the benefit of creditors (ABCs), out-of-court workouts with their creditors, and dissolution. • I advise secured and unsecured creditors on their rights and remedies in these situations when their counterparties are distressed or have entered formal insolvency proceedings. • I counsel purchasers of distressed assets in foreclosures, ABCs, and Section 363 sales. Beyond the work for my clients, I was the conference co-chair for the California Bankruptcy Forum’s 2023 Insolvency Conference and serve as an advisor to the California Lawyers Association’s Insolvency Law Committee, where I write and provide editorial guidance for articles on recent cases of interest to bankruptcy practitioners.
