A major Manhattan newspaper recently described Alan J. Kluger as a "powerhouse trial attorney." The international lawyer-ranking guide Chambers and Partners said he is a "tough litigator" who manages the fine balance between being "determined without being hostile." A founding member of Kluger, Kaplan, Silverman, Katzen & Levine, Alan is a veteran courtroom lawyer who represents some of the nation's largest businesses and most prominent individuals in their most challenging cases.
Skill and savvy, honed through decades of experience, enable Alan to earn the loyalty of his business and financial clients. They likewise distinguish his work for individual clients. His clients run the gamut of the business and financial worlds – financial institutions, Fortune 500 corporations, emerging entrepreneurs, major commercial real estate developers and national private equity groups. Many of his current clients came to him after first facing him as an adversary. Thorough preparation. Thoughtful strategy. Mastery of the facts and law. These are the elements that distinguish Alan's work. These are the reasons he consistently earns top rankings by peer-reviewed publications such as The Best Lawyers in America, Chambers USA and Florida Super Lawyers.
Devoted as he is to his clients, Alan is equally passionate about his community. He and his wife, Retired Judge Amy Dean, created a private charitable foundation, the Dean-Kluger Charitable Foundation. Its initial assets consisted of the proceeds from the sale of their extensive Judaic Collection, including more than 70 Jewish charity boxes, some more than three centuries old, representing the charitable institutions of former Jewish communities from around the world. Proceeds from the collection are used to meet the foundation's charitable goals.
A devoted patron of the arts, Alan and his wife own a world-class encyclopedic collection of Latin American art spanning from 1945 to the present. Alan and Amy often open their home and collection to host fundraising and charitable events.
