David B. Kurzweil, shareholder, co-chair of the Financial Institutions Practice at international law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP, and chair of the Atlanta Business Reorganization & Financial Restructuring Practice, will serve as the Vice Chair of the Commercial Finance Association’s (CFA) Inaugural 40 Under 40 Awards. Rudolph W. Giuliani, chair of the firm’s Cybersecurity, Privacy and Crisis Management Practice and former New York City Mayor, will provide the keynote address during the ceremony to honor the award winners, which will be held in New York City on Sept. 22.

Kurzweil is a long time member of the CFA. With more than 29 years of experience, he has represented corporations, partnerships, individuals, and financial institutions, providing innovative solutions to clients across a wide range of industries, including energy, technology, manufacturing, retail, cable television, publishing, real estate, transportation, and professional corporations. He has wide-ranging experience in Chapter 11 Bankruptcy cases, representing financial institutions, debtors, creditor's committees, and trustees. In addition, he frequently represents financial institutions and companies in out-of-court debt restructurings. Kurzweil also represents financial institutions in all types of financing, including asset-based loans and debtor-in-possession financing transactions.

In addition to his work with Greenberg Traurig, Giuliani is the founder of Giuliani Partners, a leading professional services firm in emergency preparedness, public safety, leadership during crises, and financial management. He gained notoriety during his two terms as Mayor of New York City from 1994 through 2001. Prior to becoming Mayor, Giuliani served as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York from 1983 through 1989, where he led the effort to jail drug dealers, fight organized crime, break the web of corruption in government, and prosecute white collar criminals. During his high-profile prosecutorial career, he secured 4,152 convictions with only 25 reversals. Giuliani has also handled numerous high profile trial matters during his career, including landmark cases as U.S. Attorney and arguments before the U.S. Supreme Court. He continues to handle high level litigation matters and recently was retained by a major public company for which he scored a complete victory.

Greenberg Traurig, LLP is also a sponsor of the event.
