Michael Epstein, a Deloitte Advisory principal with Deloitte Transactions and Business Analytics LLP, has been named Deloitte's global managing director for restructuring services. He succeeds Andrew Grimstone, Deloitte UK partner, who will remain as head of Deloitte's special situations advisory teams globally.

I'm excited to see them continue building upon the successful foundation that William has helped shape."
