Jim Bromley is a partner in Sullivan & Cromwell’s Finance & Restructuring Group and is the Co-Head of the Firm’s Global Restructuring practice, where his practice focuses on restructuring, bankruptcy and litigation advice to a wide spectrum of corporate clients, including creditors, debtors and investors, as well as government actors. For three decades, Mr. Bromley has advised on the most prominent matters across a large number of industries, including automobile, aviation, consumer & retail, crypto, energy, financial services, manufacturing, media & sports, mining, telecommunications and shipping, among others.
Mr. Bromley represented FTX Trading Ltd. and SVB Financial Group as debtors’ counsel in their Chapter 11 proceedings, as well as Major League Baseball in the Chapter 11 proceedings of Diamond Sports Group, including a decisive trial victory. Mr. Bromley has substantial first-chair trial experience, including jury trials before state and federal courts. His reputation extends to the international stage with his representation of Nortel Networks US.
Mr. Bromley’s dedication to pro bono work also has put him in the spotlight. In 2016, he was the lead trial counsel in Michael Ferguson v. JONAH, the landmark LGBT civil rights case where a jury unanimously determined that conversion therapy (peddling services that purport to change sexual orientation) constituted consumer fraud.
A lecturer-in-law on cross-border insolvency law at Harvard Law School, Mr. Bromley is also a fellow at the American College of Bankruptcy and an instructor at International Association of Restructuring, Insolvency & Bankruptcy Professionals (“INSOL”).
