PORTLAND, Ore. (May 23, 2022) – Tonkon Torp attorney Danny Newman has joined the Board of Directors for the Pioneer Courthouse Historical Society. The Society is an organization of judges, court staff, lawyers, historians, architects, and exhibit designers who work to preserve and provide to the public the history of Portland’s Pioneer Courthouse.
“We are facing political and ideological division unlike anything in modern times. The important moments that have taken place in Pioneer Courthouse remind us of where we came from, and unite us through our shared history,” said Newman. “I was lucky to learn about the building from insiders when I clerked on the Ninth Circuit. The Courthouse is a fascinating blend of old and new architecture and engineering, and I am excited to help maintain and share this history.”
Newman is an associate in Tonkon Torp’s Litigation Department and Bankruptcy & Creditor Rights Practice Group. He represents clients on large and complex bankruptcy cases, bet-the-company commercial and energy litigation, and government investigations and enforcement actions.
