In a conclusive triumph, HHR brought good fortune to Global Gaming Asset Management when Singapore’s highest court upheld a final arbitration award of $296 million issued in 2019 to the Las Vegas-based casino operator in its decade-long dispute with a premier gaming resort owner in the Philippines.

In the final claims dispute in the liquidation of Lehman Brothers Inc., HHR secured an appellate victory when the Second Circuit affirmed two lower court rulings in favor of the trustee’s treatment of more than $300 million in deferred compensation claims.

Hughes Hubbard represented Griffin Global Asset Management in the aircraft lessor’s landmark aircraft acquisition deal with Boeing.

Hughes Hubbard is acting as legal counsel to Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc. in its pending sale to parent company and majority shareholder Santander Holdings USA Inc. that will take the Dallas-based auto lending and consumer finance company private.

Hughes Hubbard has again been recognized as a leader in The American Lawyer’s annual pro bono special report, ranking second among Big Law firms for U.S. pro bono commitment in 2020.
