“When I started law school, I did not have a clear idea of what I wanted to do as a lawyer. By happenstance, I attended the Brooklyn Business Law Association’s bankruptcy panel, and I was hooked.  They described a practice anchored around the Bankruptcy Code, but that could, in the blink of an eye, take you deep into the business of a failed retailer, an airline, or the personal affairs of an entrepreneur. It is a practice that linked business transactions, litigation and problem solving in a way I found fascinating. Having learning opportunities continue outside of the classroom transformed my Law School experience.”
