Years In Practice


Phone Number (216) 294-4951
With impressive analytical skills, Jeff devises practical, effective, and creative options to achieve clients' objectives and mitigate their risks.

Jeff has a unique ability to simplify very complex situations.  Whether helping a business to navigate its way through unfamiliar, choppy financial waters, negotiating and preparing agreements for a restructured multimillion dollar loan, representing a bank or insurance company seeking to maximize its recovery from a troubled borrower, or assisting a receiver to preserve the value of an enterprise under his or her supervision, Jeff applies critical thinking to break down, assess, evaluate, and develop creative and effective options for clients.

Recognized as one of the "Best Lawyers in America" in his fields, Jeff advises key players about business disputes, commercial transactions, working out problem loans, defending "lender liability" claims, and navigating confidently through business bankruptcy cases and receiverships.  His wide-ranging experience includes representing:
  • Creditors' Committees
  • Debtors
  • Indenture Trustees
  • Banks and Other Secured Lenders
  • Leasing Companies
  • Unsecured Trade Creditors
  • Asset Purchasers

Jeff writes and lectures on a wide array of topics, such as identifying the various types of fiduciary duties that corporate or LLC boards of directors and officers must honor and how they can fulfill them, secured transaction and lending issues, and commercial  loan restructurings.
