Cahill partner and chair of the firm’s Bankruptcy & Restructuring practice, Joel Moss, was quoted in a recent Bloomberg News article examining the sharp rise in large corporate bankruptcy filings.

The article, titled “DISTRESS WATCH: Big Bankruptcies Hit Highest Rate Since 2020,” reports that major U.S. companies are filing for Chapter 11 protection at a pace not seen since the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Bloomberg data.

Commenting on the trend, Joel noted that “we are seeing companies that have gone through liability management exercises in the past run out of options, making Chapter 11 the only viable alternative,” he said.
