About me
Peter Zlotnick is a complex corporate and commercial, real estate, construction and health care litigator. He has more than 25 years of legal experience advocating on behalf of and advising high net worth individuals, as well as public and private business entities, private equity firms and financial institutions, concerning matters before trial and appellate courts, regulatory and administrative agencies and alternate dispute resolution bodies. Peter has also represented numerous clients in connection with bankruptcy and restructuring disputes. Additionally, Peter has experience serving as a court-appointed federal equity receiver and special master and representing other receivers, corporate monitors, trustees and public fiduciaries in connection with enforcement actions and proceedings brought by federal regulatory agencies, including the Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Commodities Futures Trading Commission and the Securities and Exchange Commission before various state and federal tribunals. In his capacity as a federal receiver and public fiduciary and as general counsel to other public fiduciaries, Peter has been tasked by numerous federal district judges with seizing, marshaling, preserving and/or liquidating receivership assets worth hundreds of millions of dollars and with undertaking complex forensic fraud examinations and investigations into the activities of those receivership entities and their principals.
Peter also prosecutes and defends claims brought by and against co-op and condominium boards and their sponsors and related stakeholders, and he represents those clients in disputes related to enforcement of their offering plans and declaration of covenants, conditions and restrictions (CC&Rs), bylaws and other governing documents. He also represents these clients in connection with construction and design defect disputes related to alleged latent defects that are discovered once the sponsor entity relinquishes control of the building to the residents, or upon the occurrence of other change-in-control events.
