Bio:	AV Preeminent \| William (Bill) Factor has been dealing with financially distressed businesses and individuals since the early 1980’s, when he first worked as a collections coordinator at a large Chicago law firm. That initial experience led him to apply to an evening law school program at DePaul College of Law, where he excelled to the point of being offered the position of a Summer Associate at the Sidley Austin firm for the summer of 1988 (and ultimately the summer of 1989). After the summer program ended each year, Bill continued on at Sidley during the school year, focusing mainly on commercial bankruptcy and litigation. During law school, Bill was in the top 5% of his class, on the Law Review and elected to the Order of the Coif. Upon graduation, Bill passed the Illinois bar and began his formal legal career as an associate in Sidley’s commercial reorganization practice. During that time, Bill obtained a very solid understanding of commercial litigation and commercial bankruptcy, representing secured creditors, creditors’ committees, debtors and other constituents dealing with financially distressed situations. In 1995, Bill was offered a position in the litigation department at Seyfarth Shaw, another large firm, which he accepted in order to further focus on commercial litigation and bankruptcy. While at Seyfarth, Bill continued to represent secured creditors, debtors, creditors’ committees, unsecured creditors in bankruptcy proceedings and non-bankruptcy work
