He works with companies across a diverse range of industries, including telecommunications, mining, energy, oil and gas, airline cargo, maritime shipping, trucking, manufacturing and technology.
He joins from Morrison & Foerster, where he was a partner for the past three years. Before that, he was a partner at Andrews Kurth and an attorney at Winston & Strawn.
Levine is recommended by the Legal 500 in the area of corporate restructuring, recognized as a Notable Practitioner for Restructuring and Insolvency in International Financial Law Review and was named a New York Rising Star in Bankruptcy & Creditor/Debtor Rights by Metro Magazine from 2011-2015.
“Jon is an accomplished lawyer with deep experience in the bankruptcy and restructuring space. His addition will add further dimension to our practice in New York and firm-wide,” said Michael L. Bernstein, chair of the Bankruptcy and Restructuring group, said in a press release.
