Introduction
Emily represents financial institutions and other creditors in restructuring efforts and transactions, with a concentration on corporate bankruptcies.
My focus
My practice centers on corporate restructuring and insolvency matters, with a particular emphasis on creditors’ rights in both in-court and out-of-court restructurings, workouts, liquidations, distressed financings and acquisitions. I provide strategic counsel to clients as they navigate the complexities and legal risks related to financially trouble companies, ensuring tailored solutions to complicated and unique challenges. I also represent financial institutions, borrowers, and agents in a broad range of corporate finance and restructuring transactions.
Looking ahead
U.S. corporate bankruptcy filings have surged in recent years, and the high level of activity will likely continue. High interest rates and tighter credit conditions have significantly increased borrowing costs for companies, particularly those with high levels of debt. The foreseeable future is likely to present a challenging environment for managing financial risks, with distressed acquisitions and restructurings expected to remain active.
