Heath Rosenblat Joins Morrison Cohen

Morrison Cohen welcomes Heath Rosenblat to the firm as Senior Counsel in the Business Solutions, Restructuring & Governance Department. Heath, who holds an LL.M. in Bankruptcy, brings over two decades of experience to his corporate restructuring, bankruptcy, and commercial litigation practice. His clients, who include members of every creditor class, receivers, and debtors, turn to him for counsel in a wide range of bankruptcy and restructuring matters, including Chapter 11 and Chapter 9 proceedings, real estate workouts and foreclosure actions, Trust Indenture Act violations, and breach of contract disputes. Heath has extensive experience in the courtroom, including a successful federal-jury trial.

Prior to joining Morrison Cohen, Heath ran his own practice, Heath D. Rosenblat, PLLC, where he focused on restructuring and commercial litigation and served in an outside general counsel capacity, as well as gained invaluable experience in business operations and management. He was previously counsel in the Bankruptcy and Corporate Restructuring practices at Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP and King & Spalding LLP, and an associate at Kaye Scholer LLP. Before his law firm experience, Heath served as Senior Assistant Counsel in the New York State Unified Court System’s Office of Court Administration, and during law school, he was a judicial intern with The Honorable Lawrence E. Mooney in the Missouri Court of Appeals in St. Louis.

Heath was an adjunct professor at St. John’s University School of Law from 2009 to 2017, where he taught a bankruptcy practice litigation seminar. He frequently writes on restructuring and Chapter 11 matters in national law publications such as American Bankruptcy Institute Journal and New York Law Journal.

In addition to practicing law, Heath is a classically-trained cook, having graduated with a culinary arts degree from The Culinary Institute of America with High Honors in August 2020.
