Dealmakers of the Year: Thomas Lauria of White & Case

Posted by Ed Shanahan

By D.M. Levine

Thomas Lauria already had his hands full with a major bit of work--the $1.6 billion bankruptcy of Six Flags Inc.--when Chuck Greenberg called in June 2010. Greenberg, a Reed Smith sports attorney who has interests in such minor league baseball teams as the Myrtle Beach Pelicans, was looking to buy the Texas Rangers, along with Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan. Greenberg had hit some snags in his fight to purchase the franchise.

Lauria wound up getting pulled into one of the most high-profile and hotly contest bankruptcies of the year. In this video, he talks about the bidding war that erupted for the team.
