Gabe also represents various other parties in chapter 11 bankruptcy cases, including operating debtors, creditor and equity committees, and asset purchasers. Gabe has guided clients through some of the largest and most complex bankruptcy cases in the country, including the PG&E, Windstream, Mallinckrodt, Westinghouse, Frontier, Intelsat, Neiman Marcus, J.
