In 2008, when Apollo Global Management first asked Stacy Kanter, a corporate finance partner at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, to help with the debt restructuring of Realogy Holding Corp. (the private equity giant owned the real estate services business), she thought it would be a quick, straightforward matter. "I remember meeting with Apollo on the same day I was trying to make it to my son’s freshman-year parents’ day event," says Kanter. "We thought it would be a small transactiona sprint."
