Greg Grossman is a founding shareholder at Sequor Law. His practice focuses on bankruptcy, insolvency litigation, international asset recovery, international litigation, and litigation involving the Uniform Commercial Code.

Grossman has particular experience in cross-border insolvency cases having filed the first Chapter 15 Bankruptcy in the State of Florida when he successfully obtained “foreign main case” recognition of insolvency proceedings for a failed financial institution in Barbados. He has since represented foreign insolvency trustees in more than three dozen additional Chapter 15 cases arising from insolvencies in Antigua, Austria, Brazil, BVI, Canada, Cayman Islands, Chile, Hong Kong, Mexico, Romania, Singapore and UK.

In domestic bankruptcies and insolvency litigation, Grossman has represented parties in all facets of reorganizations and liquidations including stay relief litigation, cash collateral disputes, bad faith dismissals, avoidance actions, and plan confirmation disputes.

He represents parties in international commercial litigation and arbitration cases and also regularly domesticates and enforces judgment rendered outside the United States.

Grossman is certified by The Florida Bar in international litigation and arbitration.
