Steven N. Kurtz

Mr. Kurtz began his career as a commercial and bankruptcy litigator. He has conducted multiple bench trials and evidentiary hearings in the federal and state court systems, as well as appellate work. He has served as lead counsel in numerous complicated commercial “meltdowns,” including fraudulent transfers, lender liability, fraud, PACA, transportation, garment industry, high tech and multi-jurisdiction matters.

Mr. Kurtz now spends about 50% of his time in litigation and 50% of his time in transactional matters, and has a large national presence and burgeoning international practice. His clients include factors, asset-based lenders, commercial finance companies, innovative fintech lenders, banks and entrepreneurs. Mr. Kurtz also serves as outside general counsel for several entrepreneurial and commercial finance companies.
