Brown Rudnick is an internationally-recognized leader in the distressed debt and claims trading industry. We are frequently consulted by clients as well as the two main trade associations – the Loan Market Association (LMA) and the Loan Syndications and Trading Association, Inc. (LSTA) – regarding developments and legal practices.

We understand the sanctity of executed trades between counterparties and the critical importance of “getting the deal done” once a transaction is agreed. Our buy-side focus arms us with an intimate appreciation of the goals and priorities for investors in this class. Our experience in this area, and understanding of the carefully thought-out risk allocation determinations that the market has made, enables us to distinguish between real-world issues and those “reinventing the wheel” points that inexperienced practitioners raise.

We possess a wealth of relevant experience across multiple practice areas, allowing us to navigate complex and often unchartered distressed debt issues, with seasoned proficiency in corporate lending, bankruptcy, restructuring, litigation and credit derivatives.
