Houston

Joe Bain, a partner and co-leader of the firm's bankruptcy & restructuring team in the Houston office, was interviewed by Front Office Sports for the article "LIV Bankruptcy Reveals PIF’s $495M Exit, Player Contract Details," published September 9, 2026. In the article, Joe focuses on LIV Golf's filing, which asks the bankruptcy court for permission to reject certain executory contracts, mostly with players. He also emphasizes that this strategy is commonly used in bankruptcy filings in the hopes that LIV will put leverage on the players to negotiate more economical terms.
