Kobre & Kim is a global Am Law 200 law firm that focuses on cross-border disputes and investigations, often involving fraud and misconduct.
Regularly working with other law firms as special counsel, our insolvency disputes and claim monetization team often litigates in contentious, multijurisdictional insolvency matters that involve competing stakeholders.
