The ‘extremely international and sophisticated’ restructuring and insolvency team at Mattos Filho attracts instructions from debtors, creditors, and investors alike for its extensive expertise in high-value debt restructurings, insolvency disputes, and debt-related transactions, most notably distressed asset sales. The São Paulo-based team is known for its international focus, frequently advising clients on complex multijurisdictional mandates. Key specialists include Marcelo Ricupero, who brings expertise in distressed asset transactions and international debt restructuring, complementing Alex Hatanaka’s broad experience in acting for financial institutions, investment funds and corporations in commercial and civil disputes related to insolvencies and corporate restructurings. Frederico Kerr Bullamah is a key contact for cross-border debt restructuring and finance transactions, while Stefano Motta has a strong track record in restructuring cases and distressed assets acquisitions, with a keen focus on the agribusiness and real estate sectors.
