Gloria Z. Nagler
Nagler & Malaier, P.S., Seattle

GLORIA Z. NAGLER is the managing shareholder in the law firm of Nagler & Malaier, P.S., and she is currently serving as Past Chair of the Creditor-Debtor Section’s Executive Committee. Gloria was recently elected by her peers to be a Fellow in the American College of Bankruptcy. Her creditor-debtor practice includes Chapter 11 business reorganizations, Chapter 13 and Chapter 7 work. Her practice especially emphasizes clients with tax issues, small businesses in distress, and clients caught in complex divorce situations. Gloria served for five years as the Plan Trustee in the Spokane Catholic Diocese bankruptcy case and found that work novel and interesting. During the Recession, NPR’s “Morning Edition” featured parts of an interview with Gloria on bankruptcy in the current economy. Gloria clerked in the mid- 1980's for the now retired Honorable Robert W. Skidmore, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge for the Western District of Washington at Tacoma. She received her B.A. with distinction from the University of California at Berkeley and her J.D. from the University of Washington.
