Publication: Global Restructuring Review
Global Restructuring Review has placed Kobre & Kim in its 2025 GRR 100, a leading list of the world’s top firms handling sophisticated cross-border restructuring and insolvency matters. GRR evaluates firms based on the complexity and international scope of their work, including major restructurings, insolvency proceedings, and related litigation, with attention to global reach, caseload and performance before courts and authorities.
Kobre & Kim’s recognition reflects the strength of its global investigations and insolvency practice, supported by key practitioners such as Daniel Saval, who focuses on cross-border insolvency and asset recovery; Adam Lavine, who represents debtors, creditors and investors in complex U.S. insolvency disputes; Donna Xu, whose practice spans insolvency litigation and financial misconduct investigations; and Zachary Rosenbaum, who is a leading trial lawyer for contentious restructurings. The firm’s offshore work is led by Peter Tyers-Smith and Timothy de Swardt, who act in contentious liquidations and enforcement matters involving trusts, joint ventures and offshore vehicles.
Testimonials praise the firm as "excellent, providing clear, concise and accurate advice. They strike the right balance between being aggressive when needed and remaining commercial, recognizing that they represent Court-appointed liquidators with a mandate to recover cash rather than simply pursue justice. They excel at mapping out successful strategies in complex, multi-jurisdictional matters."
