O’Melveny Launches Special Credit & Liability Management Group
June 24, 2025
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
NEW YORK—June 24, 2025—O’Melveny announced today the formation of its new cross-disciplinary Special Credit & Liability Management Group, reflecting growing client demand for integrated, end-to-end support across the credit cycle, particularly as capital solutions become increasingly complex and bespoke.
The newly formed group draws on O’Melveny’s award-winning strengths in front-end lending, M&A, capital markets, corporate governance, bankruptcy and restructuring, and litigation—including bankruptcy litigation—offering clients a powerful partner in creating, preserving, and protecting value in distressed and event-driven situations.
“While we’ve been at the leading edge of specialized credit and liability management transactions for many years, clients are increasingly facing issues that require integrated, strategic solutions,” said O’Melveny partner Matthew Kremer. “Together, this team delivers a blend of corporate and litigation expertise that allows us to assist from origination of a deal all the way to the courtroom, if necessary, and achieve positive, long-term results for our clients.”
“We have a successful track record of helping clients navigate high-stakes, fast-evolving situations, from novel liability management transactions and tailored capital solutions to contentious scenarios,” said O’Melveny partner Jennifer Taylor. “Clients have turned to us, time and again, to structure and implement solutions when facing their most daunting challenges. Formalizing this interdisciplinary group underscores the innovative, collaborative, and wide-lens approach we’ve always brought to bear.”
The Special Credit & Liability Management Group taps the collective knowledge of a deeply experienced, international team that has handled headline-making matters, including advising an ad hoc group of lenders to Robertshaw in successfully defending the company’s liability management transaction—one of just a handful of such transactions to be litigated to trial. The team has also counseled multiple companies, banks, and ad hoc lender groups on successful debt restructurings and liability management exercises, including Isagenix, Babcock & Wilcox, K&N Engineering, and 24 Hour Fitness.
