Business does not speak the B word.

by Andy Miofsky

The New York Times proclaimed Harvey Miller "The Most Prominent Bankruptcy Attorney in the Nation."  Mr. Miller may be best known for his representation of Lehman Brothers and General Motors in bankruptcy court.  His firm website lists his advocacy for one side or another in a page-full of bankruptcy cases, a who's who of corporate insolvency.  He is commonly, affectionately and reverently referred to as the heavy-hitter, the dean of the bankruptcy bar.

Too Big To Succeed

I spoke with him at my alma mater, Washington University Law, after a speech he gave about his role in the Lehman and G M cases.

I did not disclose my role as a blogger to Mr. Miller, I was there as a participant in the Continuing Legal Education program, so to be fair I will not quote him directly or mention details from our private conversation.  Instead I will relate my impression, a sort of epiphany, about the corporate debtor's attorney, that I experienced from his public presentation.
