Capstone was ranked #3 by volume on the list of Top Crisis Management Firms in the most recent publication of The Deal’s bankruptcy league tables. Christopher J. Kearns, Executive Director and Managing Member of the firm, was ranked #6 on the list of Top Crisis Management Professionals.
The Deal’s bankruptcy league tables involve active U.S. bankruptcy cases with debtors having liabilities of $10M or more, where rankings are based on the aggregation of those asset values. The Deal ranks the top investment banks, law firms, crisis management firms and non-investment banks, as well as the respective professionals, by the volume of liabilities of bankruptcy deals advised for that quarter. As of Q4 2014, Capstone had 21 active bankruptcy cases with total liabilities of $162.2 billion. Mr. Kearns led five of those cases with total liabilities of $77.6 billion.
Capstone has consistently been ranked by The Deal as one of the “Top Three” crisis management firms by volume every quarter since June 2011 (15 straight Top Three quarterly rankings).
