During her time on the bench, Judge Chapman oversaw a veritable who’s who of famous Chapter 11 megacases including Century 21, AeroMexico, and Lehman Brothers – the largest Chapter 11 case ever filed. Atop that, she’s extensively sought after for her mediation expertise with high profile engagements under her belt such as Purdue Pharma, Sears, and the Title III Puerto Rico/PREPA case.
