Alexandria, Va. ABI announces that Rachael Ringer of Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel LLP (New York) has been selected as one of ABI’s “40 Under 40,” ABI’s annual program that recognizes 40 of the top insolvency industry professionals under the age of 40. The honorees will be recognized at a special ceremony to be held on Dec. 10 at ABI’s 2021 Winter Leadership Conference at Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif.

She handles high-stakes and complex bankruptcy matters on behalf of creditors’ committees, bondholders and companies. Chambers USA recognized Ringer as an up-and-comer in the Bankruptcy/Restructuring field in 2021. She also was named one of Turnarounds & Workouts’ 2020 Outstanding Young Restructuring Lawyers, one of Law360’s 2020 Rising Stars and one of M&A Advisor’s 2019 Emerging Leaders. She also was a finalist in Bankruptcy Litigation for the Euromoney Legal Media Group Americas Rising Star Award, and she has been named a New York Super Lawyers Rising Star every year from 2017-2020. Ringer received her J.D. cum laude from the Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra University in 2010, when she also received the ABI 2010 Medal of Excellence in Bankruptcy. She received her B.A. with high distinction in 2007 from the University of Michigan.
