Our team approaches each engagement with a creative, outside-the-box outlook, an understanding of the motivations and goals of the parties involved, practical counsel that takes business realities into consideration, and focuses on exceeding the clients' objectives. 

The team has particular industry expertise in the retail and oil, gas and coal sectors, having represented parties across the capital structure and gained a complete understanding what drives excellent results for clients in these industries. We have had prominent roles in multiple Chapter 11 cases in these sectors, including J.C. Penney Company, Inc., Neiman Marcus, Lord & Taylor, Sears Holdings Corporation, Barneys, Toys "R" Us and Alex & Ani, as well as Gulfport Energy, Seadrill Limited, Sable Permian Resources and Sheridan Holding Company.

The Insolvency and Restructuring practice has in-depth experience representing different constituencies and in all types of in-court and out-of-court restructurings and workouts, with a focus on bankruptcy litigation, Section 363 transactions and other M&A transactions involving distressed companies. Katten also is one of the preeminent firms in representing independent directors in Chapter 11 cases and out-of-court restructurings. In addition, we regularly represent corporate debtors, official and unofficial creditors' committees, secured lenders, trade creditors, administrative agents, indenture trustees and equity sponsors.
