“The Emerging Leaders Awards were born as the ‘40 Under 40 Awards’ in 2010 to recognize and celebrate the achievements of young M&A, Financing and Turnaround professionals who have reached a significant level of success and made notable contributions to their industry and community.  With the challenges undertaken over the past two years, the 2022 award recipients join a truly remarkable, global network of outstanding young professionals,” said Roger Aguinaldo, Founder and CEO of The M&A Advisor. 

“David and Joe are emerging leaders of our M&A and corporate attorney teams,” said President and CEO Michael Nemeroff.  “They are particularly focused on helping our associates develop and our clients achieve winning outcomes.  They have earned the honor and are part of a very promising group of next generation leaders at Vedder Price.”

Swendsen also acts as outside general counsel for start-up and middle-market clients, drafting and negotiating key commercial contracts and advising them on a variety of legal matters.
