Global M&A Network has listed Haynes and Boone, LLP Partner Frasher Murphy, chair of the firm’s restructuring practice group, among the nation’s Top 50 restructuring lawyers.
Global M&A Network said that its “highly competitive” selection process was based on an evaluation of the best performing firms and most successful restructuring transactions from the previous year.
“Frasher receiving this recognition for a second time is a true testament to his successful work on numerous transactions and to his leadership of Haynes Boone’s skilled restructuring team,” said Partner Charles Beckham Jr., chair of the Board of Directors at the American College of Bankruptcy.
Murphy was a key player in the firm’s recent representation of BlockFi in bankruptcy proceedings resulting in a 100 percent recovery for all allowed claims. Over the course of his twenty-five years of practice, he has handled numerous complex Chapter 11 cases, out-of-court workout matters, and distressed mergers and acquisitions. Murphy also has substantial experience representing both creditors and debtors in Article 9 sale transactions. His clients include debtors, traditional and nontraditional secured lenders, post-petition lenders, bondholders, asset purchasers, and all other types of secured and unsecured creditors.
The Haynes Boone Restructuring Practice Group handles issues in large and complex out-of-court financial restructurings and Chapter 11 reorganization cases. The Chambers USA 2024 directory ranked the practice as a market leader in Texas – with more individually ranked lawyers in Texas than any other Band 1 firm.
