Otterbourg promoted Jennifer Feeney and Pauline McTernan to members of the firm.

“Jennifer and Pauline are outstanding attorneys,” Richard Stehl, chairman of Otterbourg’s board of directors, said. “Their successful outcomes in complex and closely watched cases, along with their leadership qualities, resourcefulness and superb client service merit their elevation to members in the firm. We are delighted and congratulate them.”

A member of Otterbourg’s bankruptcy department, Feeney represents debtors, creditors’ committees, post-confirmation committees and litigation/liquidation trusts in large and complex bankruptcy cases. She also provides legal support in mediation, arbitration and alternative dispute resolution matters and provides counsel to court-appointed fiduciaries.

“Jennifer started her career at Otterbourg and has become one of our home-grown stars,” Stehl said. “She is a zealous advocate and an indispensable counselor to the firm’s clients, having driven successful results in cases of national prominence, such as Perdue Pharma and Johnson & Johnson’s talcum powder subsidiary, LTL Management.”

Feeney is a member of the American Bankruptcy Institute and the New York Bar Association.

A member of Otterbourg’s litigation group and co-chair of the firm’s recruiting committee, McTernan represents corporations, governmental agencies, financial institutions and individuals in a wide range of litigation, arbitration and bankruptcy matters. She has advised clients on disputes involving a diverse array of issues, including breach of contract, commercial and bank fraud, restrictive covenants, letters of credit, entitlement to tax refunds, intellectual property and employment and corporate governance matters. McTernan’s experience spans all aspects of litigation, including pleadings, discovery, motion practice, settlement negotiations and trial.

“Pauline’s career and practice have blossomed at Otterbourg,” Stehl said. “Pauline is a client favorite who takes the lead and has achieved many successful outcomes in complex state and federal courts cases.”
