About Erica Richards
I am a New York-based restructuring attorney with extensive experience advising clients on both transactional and litigation matters. I regularly represent a variety of clients, including creditors’ committees, debtors, purchasers of distressed assets, individual creditors, investors, and secured lenders, in connection with a wide range of proceedings. My areas of expertise include representing parties in significant chapter 11 cases, adversary proceedings, chapter 15 cases, other cross-border matters, complex mediation, and out-of-court M&A and financial restructuring transactions, as well as advising businesses on risk management, contingency planning, and solvency strategies. My representations span a range of industries, including financial services, transportation, energy, technology, communications, and life sciences. I find practical, efficient, and effective solutions for my clients by leveraging the broad knowledge and perspective developed through my diverse practice to address each client’s immediate and longer-term needs, concerns, and goals.
