Restructuring Leadership Forum 2026

Overview


McDermott Will & Schulte is excited to host our Restructuring Leadership Forum 2026 on the brand-new 68th floor of One Vanderbilt, offering sweeping views of the New York City skyline. This program is designed for professionals at the forefront of today’s distressed and special situations market.

As borrower-lender dynamics continue to evolve and restructuring strategies grow increasingly complex, this program will bring together private credit, fund, advisory, and legal professionals for candid, practical discussions on the trends shaping the next wave of restructurings.

Following the program, join us for a networking reception to connect with peers across the industry while enjoying signature cocktails and light bites.
