The ‘diverse and committed’ restructuring and insolvency offering at A&O Shearman is well-regarded for its ’hands-on mentality and an ability to simply get things done’. The team has a strong reputation for its capabilities handling the array of work, including advising on the restructurings and workouts of companies in financial distress, and on the structuring of new deals. The matters the team works on are frequently international in context and involve ultra-high-values, while its client portfolio features well-known companies, private equity investors, and financial institutions. The group is headed up by Sigrid Jansen, who is described as being ‘strong commercially’ and has particular expertise in corporate finance, secured lending and distressed debt trading work. The ’swift and to-the-point’ Aroen Kuitenbrouwer is a key practitioner in the team, as is cross-border work focused Andrew ThomasDuco Postma departed to Dentons in September 2023.
