The attorneys at Burke, Warren, MacKay & Serritella welcome new partner David K. Welch.

Recognized as one of Chicago’s leading authorities on restructuring and bankruptcy matters, Welch represents debtors, trustees, creditors' committees, secured creditors, unsecured creditors and equity holders.  Welch will chair the Firm’s new Restructuring, Insolvency and Bankruptcy practice group.

“We assist very successful business people who are dealing with some of the most stressful events in their business lives,” said Welch. “Working very closely with our clients, we identify the problems, consider together their best options, then select and implement strategies to move forward.” 

Members of the group are experienced in handling virtually every aspect of insolvency, including restructuring, reorganization, bankruptcy, debt resolution and business and commercial litigation. They represent corporate debtors, company directors, individuals, lenders, bondholders, liquidators, receivers, administrators, trustees, assignees for the benefit of creditors, unsecured creditors’ committees, insurers, unions, pension fund trustees and landlords in all aspects of restructuring and bankruptcy.

Welch and his son, Firm associate Brian Welch, had practiced together at a Chicago-based boutique specializing in restructuring matters. “This was the right time for us to become part of a full-service firm,” said Welch. “Given my long work history with many of the attorneys here and the Firm’s strong reputation within the business and legal communities, joining Burke Warren was an easy decision for us.”
