He also advised Topgolf International in its recapitalization efforts and merger with Callaway Golf Company. His previous accomplishments include advising on the landmark chapter 11 cases of Westinghouse Electric Company, MF Global and General Motors, among many other debtor- and creditor-side representations.

The award also recognized David’s leadership, pro bono service and contributions to the legal community. A nominee for Weil’s Mentoring Award, David is committed to the professional development and success of associates in the Restructuring Department.
