Professional Experience

Jeremy H. Rothstein is a Partner with G&B Law, LLP. He helps small and mid-sized businesses navigate financial distress, bankruptcy, and litigation. Clients value his clear explanations, practical solutions, and forceful advocacy when it counts. His approach is result-oriented and pragmatic: understand each client’s unique goals and challenges, tailor the right strategy, build a persuasive case, and stay focused on achieving the best possible outcomes in court and through negotiation.

Jeremy has represented debtors, creditors, committees, and asset purchasers in chapter 11 reorganization and chapter 7 liquidation cases across a range of industries, in cases throughout the country. While he appreciates the tools available in bankruptcy, he also works with clients to avoid it whenever possible, through settlements, debt workouts, and other solutions.

In his business litigation practice, Jeremy represents both plaintiffs and defendants in contract disputes, business divorces, fraud claims, unpaid loans, and other matters. He also serves as outside general counsel to companies in the video game industry.

Before joining G&B in 2019, Jeremy practiced at a global law firm in New York and a mid-sized regional firm in Santa Monica.
