Gibson Dunn is pleased to announce that Eugene Y. Park has joined the firm’s New York office as a partner in the Business Restructuring and Reorganization and the Liability Management and Special Situations Practice Groups. Eugene leads high-profile and complex financing transactions in the rescue and distressed space.

Commenting on Eugene’s arrival, Scott J. Greenberg, Global Chair of the Business Restructuring and Reorganization Practice Group, said: “Eugene is one of the industry’s next-generation stars—a well-known and highly respected distressed financing and restructuring advisor. His rare combination of experience in both areas will be invaluable to our market-leading platform. As restructurings and distressed financings continue their sharp upward trajectory, Eugene brings significant depth—particularly on the lender side—positioning us to meet the incredible global demand from our clients.”

“Gibson Dunn’s momentum is palpable, and I’m excited to join a growth-minded and incredibly ambitious team to supercharge my practice,” said Eugene. “Gibson Dunn has built its restructuring practice—representing both debtors and creditors—into a leading global powerhouse that is best positioned for today and the future. Having worked across the table from Gibson Dunn lawyers, I know firsthand the team’s impressive bench strength, collaborative approach, and unparalleled market knowledge. I look forward to working alongside my new colleagues to guide clients through complex restructurings.”

Steven Domanowski, Chair of the firm’s Liability Management and Special Situations Practice Group, added, “In this highly active distressed environment, Eugene’s addition will deepen our bench with an exceptionally skilled and experienced professional who will help clients address a variety of complex credit challenges.”

The firm’s Business Restructuring and Reorganization Practice Group has expanded its global offering over the past few years, with Eugene as the most recent addition to the team. In May, restructuring partner Andrew Cheng rejoined the firm in Los Angeles; and in March, senior restructuring partners Chris Howard and Presley Warner joined in London. The group’s additions also include partners Lisa Stevens (London), Caith Kushner (New York), and Ryan Kim (New York), as well as the promotions of Stephen D. Silverman (New York) and Melissa L. Barshop (Century City) to partner.

It was named Lead Counsel in Debtwire’s Restructuring Advisory Mandates Report for North America in both 2023 and 2024. Within the practice, the Liability Management and Special Situations team has emerged as a pioneer in liability management, focused on devising and executing tailored solutions for ad hoc groups of debt holders and other debt investors.
