  • Overview

    Biography

    Mark Fink is a member of the Bankruptcy + Reorganizations and Business Litigation Groups. He focuses his practice on bankruptcy and litigation matters. He has extensive experience representing committees, debtors, special servicers, indenture trustees, individual creditors and liquidating trustees in bankruptcy proceedings and out-of-court workouts in all chapters of the Bankruptcy Code. 

    Mark has assisted investors in their acquisition of distressed assets and has prepared and prosecuted proceedings including main cases as well as adversary proceedings and estimation trials before bankruptcy courts throughout the United States.

    Since 2019, Mark has been a core part of the Robinson+Cole team serving as lead counsel for the Official Committee of Tort Claimants in the Imerys Talc America, Inc. bankruptcy cases pending in the Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. Imerys represents the first talc-driven bankruptcy case in history. 

    Mark’s other work includes serving as counsel to the Official Committee of Asbestos Creditors in the Bestwall LLC bankruptcy case pending in the Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North Carolina. He also has experience representing trust advisory committees in various bankruptcy cases including Speciality Products Holding Company and Maremont.

    Mark represented an indenture trustee in the Chapter 11 bankruptcy of a bank holding company in which no official committee was appointed. Through the indenture trustee’s work, the total distributable value was increased by millions and a settlement was reached that circumvented the need for a plan process thereby allowing the case to be structurally dismissed. Mark also served as co-counsel to the Official Committee of Equity Security Holders in BPS Holdings Inc. (In re Performance Sports Group) in the Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware.

    Business Litigation

    Mark has a broad range of experience handling commercial litigation matters including contract disputes, preferential and fraudulent transfers, declaratory judgments and injunctive relief, and breach of fiduciary duty actions.  

    While in law school, Mark served as a judicial intern to the Honorable Bruce I. Fox, Bankruptcy Judge for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
     

    Mark is a regular presenter at continuing legal education seminars.
