Pashman Stein Walder Hayden is pleased to announce that Henry J. Jaffe has joined the firm’s Wilmington, Delaware office as Partner in the Bankruptcy, Restructuring & Creditors’ Rights practice. Prior to joining Pashman Stein, Jaffe was a partner at Troutman Pepper and its predecessors for more than 20 years.
John W. Weiss, chair and founder of the firm’s Bankruptcy, Restructuring & Creditors’ Rights practice, said, “We welcome Henry to our growing team. He is a Chambers-ranked lawyer with more than 30 years of experience practicing at Am Law firms in Delaware, with a well-known reputation for representing clients in sophisticated and specialized matters. He has helped numerous creditors in a broad array of industries both improve their recoveries in bankruptcy cases and either eliminate or greatly reduce their risks. I’m pleased he has chosen to bring his practice to Pashman Stein, as I did, to join a team that provides high-caliber representation and innovative solutions at the more cost-effective rate structure our firm offers.”
Jaffe added, “I have long known of the fine work that John Weiss and Joe Barsalona practice in matters across the country and am thrilled to join them in this group. I am certain that clients will appreciate the top-quality counsel and high level of attention we provide at Pashman Stein, as well as the more cost-effective fee structure and access to the firm’s highly ranked litigation and appellate attorneys across many practice areas.”
“This is an exciting time for Pashman Stein as we continue to grow and expand our Delaware office to meet our clients’ needs,” said firm Chair and Managing Partner Michael S. Stein. “Adding a Chambers-ranked lawyer of Henry’s caliber and reputation continues to elevate the outstanding client service and representation for which our bankruptcy practice group is known.”
Jaffe represents debtors, trustees, and creditors’ committees; secured, unsecured, and administrative claimants; and receivers in federal and state receivership actions. He has defended and prosecuted hundreds of avoidance actions in various jurisdictions throughout the U.S. and has assisted creditors with the assumption and renegotiation of complex executory contracts and leases. He has also helped numerous clients – including owners, contractors, and suppliers – in the construction industry with insolvency and bankruptcy issues. He counsels both buyers and sellers of assets in bankruptcy, including sales involving intellectual property, pharmaceutical assets, and other assets. Henry has also counseled, among others, large retailers, manufacturers, distributors, landlords, large equipment lessors, and parties in the petroleum and plastics industries on their bankruptcy and insolvency issues.
