Matthew Kertz, Esq., partner, and chair of the commercial leasing specialty feels that the new area builds on Genova Burns strengths. “A task force like this involves our commercial leasing group, our lending group with the banks, and bankruptcy. That’s the troika here. Combining all three of these things is important to create a one-stop shop for people having problems, whether it’s a loan issue, bankruptcy, leasing, etc.,” Kertz said.
Genova Burns is no stranger to big bankruptcy cases, having been appointed local counsel in the LTL case, better known as Johnson and Johnson Talc Bankruptcy, and Genova Burn’s Bankruptcy Law team is currently representing more than 20 landlords impacted by the recent WeWork Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing.
