Research period review: 30th edition (2019/2020)
During the research period the project development team was highly active advising developers in renewable energy projects, especially wind and solar farms. Transactions that took place on the project finance side were in the same industries, with the team being largely on the lender side.
The restructuring and insolvency team represented mostly creditors and trustees in some of the largest bankruptcy proceedings both in the United States and globally. Many of these cases are ongoing.
In terms of lateral moves, in the project development and finance practice, partners Becky Diffen and David Burton joined the firm from McGuire Woods and Mayer Brown, respectively. Partner Michael Marsi left the firm for Orrick. In restructuring and insolvency partner Lawrence Larose left to join Winston & Strawn.
