Houston

Joe Bain and Samantha Oppenheim, partners and members of the bankruptcy & restructuring team, co-authored the Law360 article "LIV Golf Ch. 11 Tests Limits Of Reorganizing Around Talent," published October 7, 2026. In the article, Joe and Samantha outline LIV Golf's Chapter 11 bankruptcy case, which looks to test whether a company whose value depends primarily on individual talent can successfully reorganize through bankruptcy. They emphasized that unlike most bankruptcies, LIV Golf's future depends on convincing the same people it owes money to stay with the business, support the bankruptcy plan, and become its future owners, which could establish an important precedent for other talent-driven businesses.
