With a liquidation trustee now overseeing Dewey & LeBoeuf's bankruptcy, the professional advisers who guided the defunct firm through its first nine months of chapter 11 proceedings want to be paid the balance of the $23.6 million that they say they have earned for their contributions to the case, American Law Daily reported yesterday. The advisers—10 law, financial, and restructuring firms—submitted final fee requests in bankruptcy court this week that detail hours worked and expenses incurred from the time Dewey filed for bankruptcy in May 2012 through March 22 of this year, when the firm's chapter 11 plan became effective.
