Leading global professional services firm Alvarez & Marsal (A&M) appointed Managing Director Marc Liebman to the role of Co-Head of the Western Region for its North American Restructuring practice, effective at the beginning of this fiscal year.
“Marc has spent his entire career in the finance and restructuring industries, having most recently served as a leader in our corporate finance practice for the past 15 years. His breadth of experience and deep roots within A&M and the restructuring community make him a natural choice for this leadership position,” said Jeff Stegenga, Managing Director and national leader of A&M’s North American Restructuring practice.
Mr. Stegenga continued, “Historically, restructuring activity has been robust in the west and we expect that trend to continue. As western region co-heads, Marc and A&M Managing Director Jon Goulding strengthen our ability to solve complex financial issues facing our clients based there and across the country.”
Mr. Liebman’s restructuring experience encompasses more than 20 years advising stressed and distressed companies and their creditors. He specializes in the development and implementation of strategic, financial and operating plans for over-leveraged and undercapitalized companies in both out-of-court and in Chapter 11 contexts. Mr. Liebman has assisted companies in developing business plans, implementing strategic and operational restructuring initiatives, operating with liquidity constraints, raising capital, monetizing assets, managing creditor relationships and negotiating capital structure restructuring strategies. His past clients include AMERCO/U-Haul, CSK Auto, Euro Fresh Farms, Forbes Energy, Fresh & Easy Markets, Grubb & Ellis, Nellson Nutraceutical, Regal Cinema, Top-Flite Golf, Skopos Financial, Washington Group and William Lyon Homes.
