Lisa M. Schweitzer’s practice focuses on financial restructuring, bankruptcy, insolvency, and commercial litigation.

Lisa has extensive experience advising corporate debtors, individual creditors, committees, and strategic investors in both U.S. Chapter 11 proceedings and restructurings in other jurisdictions in the Americas, as well as Europe and Asia. She also leads companies in multimillion and billion dollar buy and sell side distressed M&A transactions, and litigates multibillion dollar case-dispositive disputes in high-stakes bankruptcy proceedings.

Lisa advises clients in some of the most high-profile bankruptcy matters, including the first-of-its-kind cross-border restructuring of LATAM Airlines Group, which recently received multiple deal of the year awards, including from the Turnaround Management Association, IFLR, and the American Bankruptcy Institute. She is recognized as a leading lawyer in restructuring by Chambers Global, Chambers USA, Benchmark Litigation, IFLR1000, The Legal 500, and was named an “Outstanding Restructuring Lawyer” for 2023 by Turnarounds & Workouts. Clients praise Lisa for being “very bright and incisive, and able to distill complex matters to provide straightforward and practical recommendations” and highlight that her “management in court is impressive.” Additionally, Lisa is well-regarded in the restructuring community, co-chairing the International Insolvency Institute’s Programs and Meetings Committee as well as INSOL International’s program committee for its 2024 annual conference and serving as Secretary of the American College of Bankruptcy’s ACB Foundation.

Lisa joined the firm in 1996 and became a partner in 2006.
