Biography

Brittany Michael, resident in the firm’s New York office and licensed in Minnesota, concentrates her practice on representing tort creditors and official committees in mass-tort and child sexual-abuse bankruptcies. Among her many engagements, Brittany was instrumental in representing the official creditors’ committees in dozens of Catholic Church chapter 11 cases such as the Diocese of Rockville Centre, the Archdiocese of San Francisco, and the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis. Brittany frequently speaks and writes on bankruptcy topics for tort attorneys and tort victims, was one of the American Bankruptcy Institute’s “40 Under 40” among bankruptcy attorneys, and was named an “Attorney of the Year” by Minnesota Lawyer for her work in representing the creditors’ committee in the chapter 11 case of the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis. Brittany holds a bachelor’s degree from Wesleyan University (2007) and a J.D. from University of Minnesota Law School (2015).
