Haynes and Boone, LLP Partner Kenric Kattner has been inducted as a fellow in the 28th Class of the American College of Bankruptcy. He is one of 30 new fellows being honored for their exceptional contributions to the restructuring and insolvency fields.
The American College of Bankruptcy is an honorary association of bankruptcy and insolvency professionals, and plays an important role in sustaining professional excellence in the industry.
Nominees are extended an invitation to join based on a sustained record of achievement reflecting the highest standards of professionalism, ethics, character, integrity, professional expertise and leadership contributing to the enhancement of bankruptcy and insolvency law and practice; sustained evidence of scholarship, teaching, lecturing or writing on bankruptcy or insolvency; and commitment to elevate knowledge and understanding of the profession and public respect for the practice.
“Ken has spent his career building a highly sophisticated practice representing debtor-side clients and key creditors in complex restructurings and bankruptcy filings,” said Partner Ian Peck, head of the firm’s Bankruptcy and Business Restructuring section. “He is an outstanding example of the ethics, values and professional excellence the American College of Bankruptcy honors, and his recognition is well-deserved.”
Kattner joins three other Haynes and Boone lawyers who have been inducted into the college – Bob Albergotti, Charles Beckham and Patrick Hughes.
At the firm, Kattner is a member of the Bankruptcy and Business Restructuring and Commodities Trading and Finance Practice Groups. He focuses on bankruptcy, insolvency, and litigation matters and has been involved in numerous bankruptcy, reorganization, and litigation cases involving heavily litigated and complex legal issues. He has experience with many reorganization efforts representing debtors, secured and unsecured creditors, committees and asset purchasers in a wide range of cases involving manufacturing companies, airlines, computer and software firms, hospitality businesses, strategic asset acquisitions, retailers, wholesalers, real estate companies, service firms, travel agencies and individuals.
In addition to his practice, Kattner has served as an adjunct professor of Law at the University of Houston Law Center and has written numerous articles and has given speeches and lectures for trade groups, CLE courses and other professional associations.
