Jacobs’ current engagements include representing the Chapter 11 Trustee of a nuclear waste disposal company, and investor groups in distressed energy, financial services and healthcare companies.

Prior to rejoining Pryor Cashman LLP in 2008, Mr. Jacobs was the founding partner of Jacobs Partners LLC, with offices in Connecticut, New York and St. Louis.
