BIOGRAPHICAL:

Mr. Netzorg maintains a trial practice focused on complex, multi-party commercial litigation, with an emphasis on partnership, limited liability company, and corporate disputes; officer and director liability, bond litigation, securities and fraud litigation; natural resources including oil and gas, mining disputes; lender liability, banking, and real estate litigation.

Mr. Netzorg successfully tried and obtained verdicts, judgments and arbitration awards in wide variety of complex commercial cases including 8-figure securities verdict, and judgment valued at 8-figures relating to real estate dispute with one of Colorado's largest ski resorts. He also represented First Interstate Bank in remaining state court claims against Central Bank. After the United States Supreme Court determined that there was no claim for aider and abettor liability under the 1934 Securities Act, First Interstate refiled its claims for aider and abettor liability under state law. Several months before trial, was hired as co-counsel to try the case. The case settled one week before trial, with customers of the bank receiving proceeds in excess of 100% of their investments.

Mr. Netzorg has established a reputation as an effective arbitrator. He regularly serves as an arbitrator and mediator as member of American Arbitration Association's Complex Commercial Case arbitration and mediation panels.
