The Feinberg Group, LLP is the foremost law firm in the nation specializing in the negotiated resolution of complex legal disputes. It has played a leading role in major class actions, bankruptcies, and private commercial disputes.

Currently, the unsettled real estate market, with high risk of default for mortgage holders and increasing risk of foreclosure, requires a new assessment of the sub-prime mortgage crisis stakeholder. The Feinburg Group is aware that this climate of instability within the real estate market calls for an innovative approach. For this reason, Ken Feinberg, Special Master for the 9/11 Compensation Fund, is working with HNMCP students to create the model for a more effective dispute management system for use with financial institutions and regulators in the months ahead.
