By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., July 20 – Winston & Strawn LLP added Tim Walsh as global chair of the restructuring and insolvency practice resident in the firm's New York office, according to a press release on Tuesday.

Mr. Walsh’s experience advising domestic and international clients in complex matters of restructuring, bankruptcy, litigation and both sides of distressed debt spans over 30 years.

"While many restructuring transactions have been placed on hold due to court backlogs and continued government assistance, there is a critical demand for strategic legal counsel among companies that are distressed," said Jonathan Birenbaum, managing partner of Winston's New York office.

"The pandemic has fundamentally changed how corporate restructurings are managed from a legal perspective," said Winston chairman Tom Fitzgerald. "Tim's insight will be essential as we help our clients navigate pathways to stability and growth during this critical period of recovery."

The firm has added 13 corporate partners in six U.S. offices in 2021.

Winston & Strawn is an international law firm based in Chicago.
