Jane E. Maschka

Jane is not just aggressive; she is a relentless advocate for her clients’ bottom line. In one case, Jane collected millions of dollars for her corporate client, obtained a civil arrest warrant and ultimately drove the adverse company into bankruptcy while still making sure that her client got paid. In another case, Jane won a dismissal with prejudice, and had sanctions placed against the plaintiffs by proving they destroyed documents to cover their fraud. In yet another, she achieved a complete defense verdict at trial in Delaware Bankruptcy Court on behalf of a client facing more than $150 million in claims asserted by a trustee. Finally, in one of the most prominent bankruptcies in the country, Jane led a trial team to the best kind of victory when the trustee ultimately paid on the courthouse steps rather than face Jane at trial.

Jane’s passion is in finding the solution to the toughest financial problems in the law. Many lawyers can tell a client what should happen in a given case. Jane’s gift is to see what will likely happen before it does and to help her client prepare for and make the best decisions in light of it.
