Bankruptcy and Restructuring

Kenneth H. Eckstein, co-chair of the Bankruptcy and Restructuring department, has played a prominent role in many of the largest and most complex Chapter 11 reorganizations over the past 30 years. Ken represents creditors’ committees, bondholders and other stakeholders in both in- and out-of-court restructurings, as well as trustees, examiners and third parties seeking to acquire the assets or businesses of financially troubled companies. He also counsels and represents debtors in the complex legal, financial and operational issues arising in reorganizations, including obtaining debtor-in-possession financing; negotiating forbearance agreements; negotiating plans of reorganization with secured lenders, creditors’ committees and other stakeholders; and conducting sales of businesses.
