Adrienne has significant experience in workouts, restructuring, and bankruptcy matters. She represents corporate debtors, secured and unsecured creditors, lessors and lessees, and trustees in federal, state, and out-of-court restructurings. Her clients represent a variety of industries, including retail, textile manufacturers, biopharmaceutical, computer software, aviation, jewelry, and automotive.
She is also experienced in creditors' rights, commercial litigation, and commercial arbitration. Adrienne’s recent experience includes successfully counseling corporate debtors as they navigate the complexities of Chapter 11, often in connection with a Section 363 sale of the client’s business. In addition, she routinely represents secured creditors and derivative contract parties in maximizing return on their agreements.
As an experienced commercial lending attorney, Adrienne also advises both borrowers and lenders on complex debt structuring, including transactions involving traditional banks and, more often, private equity. While most of these commercial lending matters involve a distressed debt or restructuring, her foresight and planning for unforeseen distress situations makes her work with non-troubled companies an asset to any client team.
Adrienne is a frequent speaker and writer on numerous topics of interest in the bankruptcy and commercial lending fields.
After law school, she served as a law clerk to the Justices of the Superior Court of Massachusetts.
