Two of the country’s best-known restructuring lawyers are representing clients on both sides of a massive bankruptcy case filed Thursday, as a subsidiary of casino and gaming giant Caesars Entertainment Corp. began Chapter 11 proceedings in an effort to shed $18.4 billion in debt.

Other Kirkland partners working on the matter include Paul Basta, Ryan Dahl, Nicole Greenblatt and Jeffrey Pawlitz.
