ABOUT JACOB MARGOLIES

Jacob Margolies is a member of Dentons’ Restructuring, Insolvency, and Bankruptcy group. In the corporate bankruptcy arena, Jacob has experience representing debtors, creditors’ committees, liquidating trustees, chapter 7 trustees, chapter 15 foreign representatives, subchapter V small business debtors, and other parties-in-interest (e.g, asset purchasers, critical vendors, etc.). He has worked on chapter 11 cases across a variety of jurisdictions, including Delaware, Florida, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Missouri, New York, and Texas. An adept legal researcher, Jacob is undaunted at the prospect of an unfamiliar venue, and is quick to familiarize himself with the local practices and procedures.In particular, Jacob has significant restructuring experience in the industries of healthcare, construction, manufacturing, retail, telecommunications, real estate, agriculture, and cannabis. He knows that every case is unique and modifies his approach so as to achieve the best possible results for the client in light of the applicable circumstances. Jacob has a dual practice that encompasses both the litigation aspects of adversary proceedings and the transactional aspects of bankruptcy sales, in addition, of course, to the administration of the bankruptcy case itself.More broadly, Jacob is familiar with the restructuring alternatives outside of bankruptcy, including UCC-9 foreclosure sales, assignments for the benefit of creditors, state law receivership proceedings, and out-of-court restructurings. Above all else, Jacob prioritizes the advancement of his client’s interests. In doing so, he is careful to understand precisely what a client would like to achieve, and is not content to rely on conventional or dogmatic approaches where they are not tailored to achieve the client’s goal. Instead, he will resort to creative problem solving when necessary, and will always consider the various legal avenues to advancing the client’s objective.This account is for informational purposes only and is not intended to constitute advertising.
