“We are excited to add Jarrod to our team in Houston,” said Larry Campagna, managing shareholder of the firm. “Jarrod brings a wealth of experience and is extremely well known in bankruptcy matters. He brings us a new level of capability in that arena.”

Martin brings 11 years of national litigation experience with a focus on restructuring and bankruptcy to Chamberlain Hrdlicka. He has practiced in both federal and state courts across the country, including time at both the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Bankruptcy Courts, representing a variety of clients, including bankruptcy trustees, creditors, and corporate and high net-worth debtors, helping them through their bankruptcy and beyond. He has a wealth of experience in restructuring matters affecting energy companies and has represented creditors in some of the largest oil and gas bankruptcies filed in Texas.
