MIAMI, April 4, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Global law
firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP continues to grow the resources
available to help its clients with their restructuring and
bankruptcy issues by expanding its exclusive strategic alliance
with Bruce Zirinsky, former Co-Chair
of Greenberg Traurig's Restructuring & Bankruptcy Practice, to
include former Greenberg Traurig Shareholder Gary Ticoll. Ticoll
has now joined Zirinsky as a participant in the alliance which went
live this past week.
Both Ticoll and Zirinsky live in South
Florida but practice nationally and globally. Their alliance
activities will be run from the firm's Miami office.
Ticoll is a seasoned practitioner who has worked closely with
Zirinsky for many years. He represents institutional investors,
public and private corporations, bondholders, hedge funds,
post-petition lenders, and acquirers of distressed assets in
complex corporate reorganizations, both out of court and in Chapter
11, involving domestic, multi-jurisdictional, and cross-border
matters across a wide variety of industries, including shipping,
aviation, telecommunications, automotive, healthcare, finance, and
real estate.
"We began planning the bolstering and expansion of our global
restructuring team over the last year or so, from the U.S. to
The Netherlands, Germany, Italy, and, of course most recently,
London, with Ian, and then our
strategic alliance with Bruce," said Richard A. Rosenbaum, Executive Chairman of
Greenberg Traurig. "We felt the strong and long 'up cycle' was
peaking and we have a long tradition of being ready for
change."
"Working with Bruce has always been an honor and privilege, and
I greatly enjoyed my fulfilling years working with my many friends
and colleagues at Greenberg Traurig. I am excited to be able to do
so again," Ticoll said.
"Bruce and I always intended for Gary to join him and our
strategic alliance, also basing his activities in Miami. Gary is a great guy and a well-known
and seasoned expert, having worked with Bruce and our firm for many
years," Rosenbaum said.
"Today this alliance is even more important given the
unprecedented period of disruption we are all experiencing,"
Rosenbaum added. "Greenberg Traurig's Restructuring &
Bankruptcy Practice is prepared for the challenge of addressing the
most complex issues for businesses that may appear regionally,
nationally, and globally from economies hampered by COVID-19,
recession, or any other catastrophic occurrence. To that end,
beyond the alliance, we will have some important news next week of
additional well-known restructuring lawyers joining the firm in
multiple offices across the United
States. None of this happens overnight, but we are ready to
roll just when our clients will need us most."
