We represent public and private companies in bankruptcy proceedings, out-of-court restructurings, debt for equity exchanges, “internal” reorganizations, and distressed asset purchases and sales. Our lawyers frequently represent investors, lenders, creditors or equity holders in bankruptcy cases, out-of-court restructuring transactions or workouts, and provide advice on credit issues, derivatives, structured finance and other sophisticated financial instruments, as well as other insolvency-related issues. We also represent trustees, examiners, creditors’ committees, and equity committees in Chapter 11 cases, as well as trustees in Chapter 7 cases. In addition, Jenner & Block has unparalleled experience in retiree committee representation and municipal restructurings.
