Arielle B. Adler, counsel in Lowenstein’s Bankruptcy & Restructuring Department, has been named one of the Best LGBTQ+ Lawyers Under 40 by the National LGBTQ+ Bar Association.
Each year, the LGBTQ+ Bar recognizes 40 LGBTQ+ legal professionals under the age of 40 who have distinguished themselves in their field and have demonstrated a profound commitment to LGBTQ+ equality. The 40 Under 40 awards serve to identify truly excellent LGBTQ+ lawyers within and to the greater legal community, and in so doing, play an important part in building a pipeline for the future success of LGBTQ+ lawyers.

Her pro bono practice also includes representing low-income individuals seeking relief in Chapter 7 proceedings.
