Amy has represented investors and creditors’ committees in many of the nation’s largest, most complex and highest-profile bankruptcies for the past 24 years. Chambers USA and Legal 500 recognize her as a leading practitioner, with sources describing her as “well versed in complex and idiosyncratic legal issues,” with “a strong understanding of the deal dynamics,” noting “she is very strategic and outmaneuvers her opponents time and again” (Chambers 2022). Amy’s recent high-profile representations in Chapter 11 and other restructurings include representing holders of over $3 billion of revenue bonds in Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority’s (PREPA) restructuring proceedings; holders of over $6 billion of Puerto Rico, COFINA, UPR and HTA bonds in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico’s restructurings; the majority bondholders of AES Puerto Rico; bank lenders to PG&E (California’s largest electric utility company); and the majority holders of over $1 billion of secured and unsecured bonds in First Energy’s restructuring.
