The National Association of Bankruptcy Trustees (the “NABT”) has appointed SNW Partner Ryan J. Richmond as the Co-Chair of its Subchapter V Conference Planning Subcommittee.

The NABT is hosting its annual conference in Chicago, IL August 25-27, 2021. This year’s conference will feature a first-of-its-kind track dedicated exclusively to issues arising under subchapter V of the new Small Business Reorganization Act of 2019.

Ryan and his co-chair, Kesha Tanabe of Minneapolis, MN, have assembled a distinguished nationwide group of judges, trustees and practitioners that will take attendees through each step of subchapter V small business reorganization.

Ryan serves as Managing Partner of SNW’s Baton Rouge, LA office and leads the firm’s bankruptcy section.

Ryan was honored to be appointed a member of the first panel of case-by-case subchapter V trustees in Louisiana. His work as a Subchapter V Trustee represents a growing practice and a new form of relief for small businesses in bankruptcy.
