Andrews Kurth announced noted bankruptcy attorney Michelle V. Larson has rejoined the firm as a partner in Dallas.

Larson provides clients with more than 16 years of experience representing businesses in commercial bankruptcy and restructuring matters, including work for both debtors and creditors in complex bankruptcy proceedings, out-of-court restructurings, liquidations, secured financings and commercial litigation.

“Michelle has been at the center of some of this country's most notable cases,” says Houston attorney Bob Jewell, managing partner of Andrews Kurth. “She is one of the most sought-after attorneys in Texas, and she will be a tremendous asset to our clients.”

Larson most recently worked with Forshey Prostok LLP, a bankruptcy boutique, where she opened and led the firm’s Dallas office. She also previously practiced in the Dallas offices of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP and Andrews Kurth LLP.

“This move is a homecoming of sorts, as I rejoin the great team at Andrews Kurth,” says Larson. “Andrews Kurth has an outstanding reputation in the bankruptcy field, and I look forward to continuing to build on that strong tradition.”
