In a statement, Jefferies’ global head of investment banking and capital markets Benjamin Lorello said: “Our restructuring business is one of the leading franchises on Wall Street and an area of longstanding commitment and focus at Jefferies.

Lyndon is a good man. Lawyers' moves to non-legal restructuring roles don't always work out (see what I did there??). It will be interesting to see how he does at Jefferies - it is a great franchise and an interesting opportunity.
