Trustee's best bet
Ira has represented our firm in innumerable bankruptcy asset recoveries over the years, and has an unequalled ability to locate and recover assets under even the most difficult of circumstances. The best ally a trustee could ask for.

Excellent
Ira advised Walgreens on several bankruptcy matters. His advice was practical, and he was very knowledgable about the nuances of bankruptcy law. He was easy to work with and quite responsive to our needs.
