Malfitano Partners Opens New York Office

New York, NY, January 6, 2016 (Newswire.com) - Nationally known transactional and restructuring lawyer Joe Malfitano proudly announces the establishment of Malfitano Partners, a unique acquisition and disposition advisory group. Based in New York City, Malfitano Partners will provide clients globally with a suite of services through two operating companies: Malfitano, PLLC (legal services) and Malfitano Advisors, LLC (advisory services).

The legal practice of Malfitano, PLLC will be local, national and international in scope with a focus on business, debt and asset acquisition and disposition transactions in or out of court. The firm will represent a broad spectrum of clients, including acquirers, investors, companies (in or out of court), trustees, and liquidation trusts. The firm will also act as a trusted partner to many larger firms in helping them deliver the best value to their clients in connection with asset disposition transactions.

After spending the last 15 years handling hundreds of acquisition and disposition transactions in and out of court, both as a lawyer and as a senior business executive, I saw a real need to have a firm that can advise clients through those processes in an efficient and clear way from both a legal and business perspective.

With a deep understanding of the legal and business aspects of the asset disposition industry, the firm has the ability to quickly assess a situation, formulate a comprehensive set of strategic alternatives, and work to quickly implement the solution best positioned to maximize short- and long-term stakeholder value.
