About S
Biography
I am a co-founder of Greene & Markley, which is recognized throughout the Pacific Northwest as a leading law firm for bankruptcy and insolvency matters. I have a varied transactional and litigation practice with a focus on commercial law, business reorganization, bankruptcy, collections, employment law and real estate matters. I have represented a number of creditors’ committees and debtors in successful Chapter 11 cases, as well as represented corporate and banking clients in general business financing and corporate matters. I have been involved in the acquisition and restructuring of a number of businesses.
I have been a speaker at the bi-annual Oregon-Washington Uniform Commercial Code Seminar, Northwest Bankruptcy Institute, and numerous Multnomah County Bar Association and Oregon State Bar Association seminars on Uniform Commercial Code, collection law, bankruptcy, real estate financing and lien law.
