Ricardo is an Associate in the Firm's Financial Restructuring and Insolvency practice in New York.
He represents debtors and creditors in a variety of corporate restructuring matters, including chapter 11 cases and cross-border reorganizations.
Ricardo first began his career as a restructuring attorney in Brazil, where he was admitted to practice in 2011, and obtained significant experience advising debtors, creditors and investors in both judicial and out-of-court restructurings.

(the Brazilian telecom giant) in its restructuring, which spawned proceedings across several different jurisdictions.
