Butler Rubin names Neal Wolf and Jerry Munitz to head up new practice

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 25 - Butler Rubin Saltarelli & Boyd LLP said it has hired bankruptcy lawyers Neal Wolf and Jerry Munitz to launch a business reorganization, bankruptcy and insolvency practice at the firm.

Earlier in their careers, Wolf and Munitz worked together at Winston & Strawn and will reunite their practice at Butler Rubin. Most recently Wolf was a partner at Katten Muchin and Munitz was of counsel at Goldberg Kohn.

The move adds practice depth to Butler Rubin's boutique law firm approach, allowing the firm to offer clients five specific areas of legal practice -- reinsurance, antitrust, products liability/mass tort, bankruptcy and complex business litigation.

Wolf will join as a partner. He focuses his practice in the areas of bankruptcy, business reorganizations, workouts and commercial litigation.

A graduate of Princeton University, he received his law degree from the University of Chicago Law School in 1974.

Munitz will work as counsel. His practice is focused exclusively on commercial insolvency law. He has represented financial institutions holding fully secured, undersecured and unsecured claims in out-of-court restructurings and Chapter 11 cases.

He is a graduate of the University of Michigan and received his law degree from the University of Chicago Law School in 1960.

Chicago-based Butler Rubin is a law firm.
