   I practice complex commercial, business, securities and bankruptcy litigation. I have litigated cases in more than a dozen different jurisdictions around the country. I litigate substantial business disputes in various federal and state courts and arbitration forums, including breach of contract, partnership and employment disputes, restrictive covenant cases, real estate, insurance, medical and dental products and intellectual property. I prosecute claims involving securities fraud, M&A, Ponzi scheme and other securities-related issues on behalf of institutional and other sophisticated investors, and defend public companies and stock brokerage firms, and their officers and directors, in securities class actions and related matters. I represent witnesses and targets in SEC and other enforcement cases and Audit Committees of public companies in conducting internal investigations under Sarbanes-Oxley, as well as respondents and claimants in FINRA and arbitrations and stockbrokers on Promissory Note claims by former firms. I also regularly litigate a broad range of bankruptcy matters on behalf of unsecured creditors, equity holders and debtors, including fraudulent conveyance, preference, and lender liability issues. I spent three years at the United States Securities and Exchange Commission as a Trial Attorney and three years as Chief Attorney, Branch of Enforcement, in the SEC’s New York Regional Office.
