Kelley Drye & Warren partner Robert Haig heads the Commercial Division Advisory Council, a group of about 45 lawyers and judges across New York state who fashion new rules for the Commercial Division.
The division, created in the mid-1990s by former chief judge Judith Kaye, is a specialized arm of the state’s court system that presides over complex commercial and financial cases. The segment that handles the most cases, according to Haig, is the Manhattan Supreme Court Commercial Division. Across the state the Commercial Division is found in 10 counties. It has 29 justices total and handles a high volume of cases, often involving high dollar amounts.
