Selendy Gay, a premier firm for complex, high-stakes litigation, announced that Claudia Tobler has been elected partner effective June 1, 2026. Her promotion reflects the firm’s continued growth and investment in top-tier talent as it strengthens its position at the forefront of the financial litigation market.
Claudia joined Selendy Gay in 2025 as Special Counsel following the addition of Kelley Cornish as senior partner charged with building out the firm’s well-regarded bankruptcy and distressed companies litigation practice. Claudia brings decades of relevant expertise and has accelerated Selendy Gay’s successful expansion of its practice representing post-chapter 11 litigation trusts, special committees, independent directors, and other key stakeholders.
“Claudia is an exceptional lawyer whose deep technical expertise, judgment, creativity and commitment to clients exemplify what we value most at Selendy Gay,” said Kelley Cornish.
Founding partner, Faith E. Gay, said “Claudia’s promotion reflects both her stellar contributions and the firm’s continued strategic growth in the distressed litigation arena.”
“Claudia is a thoughtful and strategic advocate—someone I always want on the team when I am working at the intersection of insolvency and fast-paced, high-stakes litigation,” added founding partner, Jennifer Selendy.
“Selendy Gay has built a reputation for taking on complex, consequential, commercial disputes from inception through trial,” said Claudia Tobler. “I’m honored to join a partnership so deeply committed to excellence and to helping our clients navigate their most challenging situations.”
