Sean M. Beach

To Sean Beach any corporate restructuring situation is an opportunity to dive deeply, and usually quickly, into the inner workings of a business and the concerns of its key stakeholders. Each industry poses its own set of challenges, and the various companies within that industry present both broad contrasts and subtle nuances, all of which must be absorbed in the course of a well thought-out restructuring. He has steered distressed companies and their creditors to optimal outcomes in a wide range of industries, including energy, retail, mortgage lending and servicing, healthcare, manufacturing and technology.

He knows well the pressures facing directors and officers — whether on the debtor or creditor side — and his clients rely on him to help manage those issues while navigating the strategic and tactical complexities of a time-sensitive restructuring, in or out of bankruptcy. In an environment of multiple competing interests, he is known for being as aggressive or as flexible as the situation calls for, and for arriving at the best available litigated result or deal for his clients. As lead counsel or co-counsel, primarily in Delaware and New York, this versatility proves a valuable strategic resource for his clients, many of whom are facing a potential bankruptcy for the first time.

Sean also leads Young Conaway’s Technology Committee and co-chairs its Diversity Committee.
