Led by Richard Orzy in Toronto and Kenneth Lenz in Calgary the team at Bennett Jones continues to handle wide ranging mandates usually acting on the creditors side.
The team managed to secure a role on one of last year's largest deals when they advised the noteholders committee in Nortel Networks Chapter 11 proceedings. The team led by Orzy acted on both the US and Canadian proceedings.
In a similar deal, the team also acted for the Chapter 11 committee on the proceedings surrounding AbitibiBowater, one of the largest cross border restructurings seen in Canada in the last two years.
Assisting Orzy on both the above deals was Kevin Zych, who also led in his own right when acting for Deloitte & Touche on the Chapter 11 proceedings of satellite and telecommunications firm TerreStar.
Away from Chapter 11 related work, the team also advised the first and second lien lenders consisting of almost 40 parties in the restructuring of Gateway Casinos and Entertainment.
