Sidley recognized by Turnarounds & Workouts in its 2025 special report on the significant “Asia-Pacific Restructuring Practices of Major U.S. Law Firms.” The annual report highlights the Asia-Pacific practices engaged in cases involving Asia-Pacific companies exhibiting signs of stress or restructuring.
Turnarounds & Workouts has highlighted Sidley’s role in several landmark Asia-Pacific restructurings, including Kaisa Group’s US$12.3 billion offshore debt restructuring, the largest ever for a Chinese real estate company. Turnarounds & Workouts has also highlighted Shimao’s US$11.5 billion restructuring sanctioned in Hong Kong, and Sino-Ocean Group’s US$6 billion restructuring implemented through coordinated UK and Hong Kong proceedings (including the first UK restructuring plan to be implemented by a Chinese real estate company). The publication also recognized Sidley’s work advising Sunac China Holdings on its US$9.2 billion restructuring, alongside other significant matters for leading developers and corporates across China, Vietnam, Singapore, Korea, and Indonesia.
Sidley partners Dhevine Chandrapala, Desmond Ang, Carrie Li, Olivia Ngan, Kieran Sharma, and Renee Xiong have been featured as key professionals by the publication.
