For his work on this case, Silver received a “Most Effective Lawyers” award in bankruptcy from the Daily Business Review.

Silver joins the firm after holding senior litigation roles and leading practice groups in other full-service law firms.

“James brings a considerable depth of knowledge and experience to Nason Yeager,” said Michael Nullman, chair of the firm’s Commercial Litigation Practice Group. “His ability to handle complex litigation and bankruptcy matters will be invaluable to supplementing the needs of our clients and bolstering the capability of our practice group and firm as a whole.”

Silver is an AV Preeminent-rated attorney by Martindale-Hubbell and has been recognized for Bankruptcy Litigation by Chambers & Partners USA. He has been named to The Best Lawyers in America list from 2018 to 2024 and selected to the Florida Super Lawyers list from 2022 to 2024.

“I am honored to join Nason Yeager and work alongside such a talented team of professionals,” said Silver. “I look forward to contributing to the firm’s continued success and delivering exceptional legal results to our clients.”
