Goodwin, the global law firm serving innovators and investors, today announced that Alexander Nicas joined the firm’s Financial Restructuring group as a partner, resident in the New York office.

“Our private equity, tech, life sciences, real estate, and financial services clients recognize our best in class restructuring talent,” said Michael Goldstein, chair of Goodwin’s Financial Restructuring group. “With his broad skill set, Alex is a great addition to our team, and will help ensure we continue to assist our clients with their most important distressed situations.”

Nicas focuses his practice on the representation of distressed companies, equity sponsors, bondholders, secured and unsecured creditors, and other stakeholders in all aspects of corporate restructuring matters, including in-court chapter 11 cases, out-of-court restructurings, and other distressed transactions. 

Goodwin’s global Financial Restructuring group has been actively involved in a number of headline cases, out of court and in court, as it continues to expand its representation across jurisdictions of sponsors, boards, investors, creditors, contract counterparties, and litigants whose commercial transactions are at the intersection of innovation and capital.
