A Professional Milestone in Texas: The Investiture of Hon. Alfredo R. Pérez

The investiture of Hon. Judge Alfredo R. Pérez as a bankruptcy judge in the Southern District of Texas took place on October 17, 2024, in a stately courtroom that was filled to the brim.  The ceremony was personal and touched on many facets of Judge Pérez's life, including his long career at Weil, his family, and his most recent journey as a newly appointed bankruptcy judge. As a restructuring and turnaround professional, I'm active in several of his cases and enjoy his knowledge, demeanor, and style. 

Alfredo R. Pérez took the bench as a bankruptcy judge in the Southern District of Texas on July 16, 2024. Prior to taking the bench, Alfredo practiced law in Houston for more than 43 years. The last 22 years, he was a partner in the Restructuring Department of Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, and was the Managing Partner of the firm’s Houston office. He retired from Weil at the end of 2023.
