About Joshua Mester

My practice concentrates on complex corporate reorganization and bankruptcy matters and distressed litigation. I have represented debtors, creditors, and shareholders in some of the largest restructuring cases across a variety of industries, including gaming and entertainment, healthcare, retail, media, professional sports, airlines, and utilities. I am currently representing shareholders of PG&E Corporation in the largest restructuring in California. My recent creditor representations include senior creditors holding more than $7 billion in debt of iHeartCommunications, Inc. and second priority noteholders of Caesars Entertainment Operating Company, where Jones Day negotiated a settlement that resulted in more than $3 billion of additional value for noteholders. I also represent debtors in creatively solving financial challenges, such as my recent representation of ContextMedia Health, LLC, a health care media company. Before joining Jones Day in May 2012, I was a key member of the legal team that represented the Los Angeles Dodgers in its chapter 11 case resulting in a $2 billion sale of the team. I also represented a number of debtors in chapter 11 proceedings, including California Coastal Communities, Factory 2-U Stores, LTV Steel Company, Solidus Networks, and Weststar Cinemas. He represented creditors, creditor groups, indenture trustees, and other parties in interest in chapter 11 cases and out-of-court workouts across the county. In addition, I was a key member of the trial team that obtained an $80 million judgment for Hawaiian Airlines against Mesa Air Group arising from Mesa’s breach of a confidentiality agreement.
