Representation of Official Committees

Our lawyers represent bondholders, unsecured creditor committees, retiree committees and other committees in official and ad hoc capacities. Our relationships with the financial community and techniques for structuring and implementing transactions allow us to create and maximize value for parties interested in acquiring financially distressed claims or assets. We are able to synchronize the interests of diverse creditor constituencies and maximize the recovery for all unsecured creditors by bridging the gaps between parties of a committee and performing with objectivity.

Most recently, we were hired by the Unofficial Committee of General Motors Dealers, which was formed by the GM National Dealers Council (NDC), to represent it with the restructuring plans and subsequent bankruptcy proceedings of General Motors Corporation. The NDC represents the interests of approximately 6,000 GM dealers in the U.S. and serves as the dealer body's primary voice in matters relating to GM. The Unofficial Committee was formed by the NDC, in cooperation with the National Automobile Dealers Association, to represent the collective interest of GM dealers in GM's Chapter 11 case.
