American Bankruptcy Institute Names David Herman Among its “40 Under 40” for 2022
David Herman, a partner in Dechert’s financial restructuring group, has been recognized by the American Bankruptcy Institute (ABI) in its 2022 “40 Under 40” list. Each year, the publication honors the achievements of exceptional lawyers with outstanding records of professional achievement and community leadership under the age of 40.
Mr. Herman, who has been recognized for financial restructuring by The Legal 500 US, focuses his practice on representing debtors, official and ad hoc committees, creditors, asset acquirers and other interested parties in chapter 11 bankruptcy cases, cross-border insolvency matters, out-of-court restructurings, and restructurings of sovereign and governmental debt. He also has extensive experience in commercial litigation matters, including securities litigation, shareholder derivative litigation, mergers and acquisitions litigation, and other complex disputes.
Mr. Herman has devoted a significant portion of his practice to representing Latin American parties and handling matters arising in Latin America. His experience in that area includes representing sovereign and commercial actors in restructuring and litigation matters and representing parties in connection with internal investigations and regulatory inquiries.
Founded in 1982, the ABI is the country’s largest multi-disciplinary, nonpartisan organization dedicated to research and education on matters related to insolvency. Honorees will be recognized at a special ceremony at ABI’s 2022 Winter Leadership Conference in December.
