What do the City of Detroit and Chrysler have in common? Not only were those some of the largest and most high-profile bankruptcy cases of all time, but they were also represented by Corinne Ball. Once described as “one of those sort of alarmingly creative and aggressive thinkers who can bring imagination and personality to bankruptcy law," Ms. Ball has more than 40 years of experience in business finance and restructuring and is one of the most decorated attorneys of all time. And to top it all off, throughout her career, Ms. Ball has been a champion for the younger generation, and in particular, young women and other underrepresented professionals in the restructuring community and elsewhere.
