In Commercial Litigation & Dispute Resolution, Richard Cowen was recognised in the Leading category, with David Schwarz and Justin Marschke recognised in the Recommended category.
In Insolvency & Restructuring, Richard Cowen was recognised in the Leading category, with David Schwarz recognised in the Recommended category.
