Sprayregen has been with Kirkland & Ellis since 1990 and has spearheaded several high-profile bankruptcies: He performed $3.45 million worth of services in the United case alone. "No mistake about it, it's a big blow to Kirkland," says a Greenberg Traurig attorney. "He was one of its top three or four rainmakers."
