Speaker: Hon. Robert E. Gerber joined Joseph Hage Aaronson in 2016 upon his retirement
from the federal bench, having served, for 15 years, as a United States Bankruptcy Judge in
the Southern District of New York. He now offers services in bankruptcy and commercial
expert testimony, fiduciary work, arbitration, mediation, and consulting. During his tenure as a
federal bankruptcy judge, he presided over a wide variety of complex cases—with 10 cases with
over $1 billion in debt and many more with over $100 million in debt--including PSINet, Ames
Department Stores, Global Crossing, Adelphia, ABIZ, Basis Yield Alpha Fund, Lyondell
Chemical, BearingPoint, DBSD North America, Chemtura, Pinnacle Airlines, Houghton-Mifflin
Harcourt and General Motors. He was named as one of the nation’s outstanding bankruptcy
judges six times.
The Almanac of the Federal Judiciary noted that “Judge Gerber ha[d] held the reins on a host of
complex filings that required court sessions stretching into the small hours of night, including the
blockbuster General Motors case and the bankruptcies of Lyondell Chemical and cable company
Adelphia,” and that his caseload carried “a collective price tag of over $1 trillion.”
Judge Gerber earned a B.S. degree in industrial engineering, with high honors, from Rutgers
University (from which he graduated in 1967), and a J.D. degree, magna cum laude, from
Columbia Law School, from which he graduated in 1970, and where, among other things, he was
a James Kent Scholar. Before going on the bench, he practiced with the firm of Fried, Frank,
Harris, Shriver & Jacobson, in New York City, specializing in securities and commercial
litigation and, thereafter, bankruptcy litigation and counseling. He served in the United States
Air Force from 1971 to 1972, as a First Lieutenant, serving in the areas of military procurement
and production and legal assistance to Air Force personnel and their families.
Judge Gerber is an Adjunct Professor of Law at Columbia Law School, where he has taught
Columbia’s Advanced Bankruptcy Seminar since 2012. He also is a contributing author
to Collier on Bankruptcy, and a Fellow of the American College of Bankruptcy.
