White & Case LLP‘s restructuring practice was significantly strengthened in August 2024 with the arrival of the well-regarded Anne-Sophie Noury, an expert in distressed LBO transactions and cross-border restructurings, from Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP to lead the department. The firm’s comprehensive offering covers the full range of distressed situations, corporate reorganisations and insolvency proceedings on behalf of creditors, debtors, investors and potential buyers, with the Paris team particularly well equipped to handle major cross-border restructuring deals with the support of the firm’s other international offices. The experienced Saam Golshani and Alexis Hojabr, both of whom are recognised for their expertise in acting for financial sponsors, Alicia Bali and Hugues Racovski are also prominent figures in the practice.
