Hogan Lovells has brought on a retired Delaware bankruptcy judge as a partner in its business restructuring and insolvency practice, the firm announced Wednesday.
Kevin Carey, who retired from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware at the end of August, will join the firm as partner Oct. 1. His hire comes after an 18-and-a-half-year career as a U.S. bankruptcy judge, first at the Eastern District of Pennsylvania from 2001 to 2005 and then in Delaware, where he rose to become one of the most prominent bankruptcy judges in the country.
During his time on the bench, Carey oversaw the reorganization of Tropicana Entertainment, the sale of the Tribune Media Co., and the W.R. Grace Chapter 11 proceedings.
