My practice is concentrated in bankruptcy and restructuring, with a focus on wind-downs, bankruptcy litigation, and fiduciary representations. With more than two decades experience in this practice area, I have served continually and in good standing as a member of the Federal Panel of Bankruptcy Trustees for the Southern District of New York (Manhattan).
I am also a Federal Subchapter V panel trustee for Region 2 (which encompasses New York City). I have served as trustee of numerous large chapter 11 and chapter 7 estates, including more recently, The Northwest Company, LLC, Thelen LLP, Pali Capital, Inc., Louis Frey Company, Third Toro LLP, Dallek, Inc., Timothy’s Coffees of the World, Applied Theory, Inc., and many others. I have also represented several other panel and non-panel trustees in New York and other jurisdictions. In addition, I have significant experience in complex wind-downs and liquidations, and in the investigation and recovery of estate claims through litigation (and mediation) including against prior management, insiders, and third parties.
I am also a court-approved mediator in the bankruptcy courts of the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York. I graduated from Hofstra University School of Law in 1988. I interned for a bankruptcy judge and a firm engaged in bankruptcy practice while in law school. Upon graduating, I became associated with Salomon Green & Ostrow, P.C., a bankruptcy boutique firm in New York City.
In 1992, I started my own law firm, Geron & Associates, which grew significantly until I merged my firm with a national law firm in 2005 to start that firm’s New York office, where I also served as the first office managing partner of this office and then as an elected at-large member of the firm’s national executive management committee for several years. The New York office, which I started and developed, grew to more than 80 lawyers by the time of my departure.
In 2015, I decided to return to my roots in boutique bankruptcy and insolvency law, first joining a small general practice firm and, in 2021, forming Geron Legal Advisors LLC as an boutique law firm focusing on bankruptcy, dissolution and fiduciary representations in such matters.
