On behalf of the State Bar of Georgia, I would like to express condolences to the family, colleagues and many friends of longtime Atlanta bankruptcy attorney Morton P. Levine after his passing at the age of 95.

After graduating from the University of Georgia School of Law in 1953, Mr. Levine started his own firm in Atlanta, specializing in bankruptcy law, in which he earned a national reputation for negotiating and conflict resolution in large and small cases, having been appointed in well over 100 cases to serve as bankruptcy trustee for the debtor.
