The Los Angeles Business Journal recognized partners Bety Javidzad and Tania Moyron as Women of Influence: Attorneys for 2023. The Dentons duo was selected due to their exceptional legal skills and achievements on behalf of clients, leadership roles and contributions to the Los Angeles community.  

Javidzad is widely recognized for navigating national and international clients through complex multimillion and multibillion-dollar matters. As chair of Dentons’ Los Angeles office’s Diversity and Inclusion Committee and as a member of the Recruiting Committee, Javidzad leads Firm efforts to foster the hiring, retention and promotion of diverse colleagues. She is committed to serving pro bono clients and contributing to the community in a variety of ways, including serving on the board of UCLA Law Women LEAD, an initiative that addresses challenges women alumnae face throughout their careers.

Moyron is the chair of Dentons’ US Region Restructuring, Insolvency and Bankruptcy group and the US Region co-chair of the global restructuring group. She specializes in corporate restructuring, including out-of-court workouts and formal insolvency proceedings, in a variety of industries. Most recently, she led a broad team of restructuring and capital market lawyers in Chapter 11 cases filed by home mortgage originator First Guaranty Mortgage Corporation and its affiliate. Prior to that, she led the representation of Verity Health Systems of California and its affiliates in Chapter 11—the second-largest nonprofit hospital bankruptcy case ever filed in the United States. Moyron also leads the Practice Group Diversity Partners Initiative for the group, a role she was chosen for because of her personal commitment to diversity, particularly in terms of career advancement for women and minorities.
