Fox Rothschild congratulates Stephanie Ward who was selected to the Greek America Foundation’s Forty Under 40 Class of 2026, which honors young professionals of Greek descent who combine professional excellence with a deep dedication to philanthropy and community service.

Ward, an associate in the Financial Restructuring & Bankruptcy Department, has established a practice in representing official committees of unsecured creditors in major Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases around the country, helping protect the financial interests of those individuals and businesses that are most vulnerable when companies experience financial hardship.

The Forty Under 40 recipients embody a “determination to use their talents and success in ways that benefit the world around them,” a distinction that reflects Ward’s advocacy and commitment to fighting for her clients.

A second-generation Greek American, Ward is a member of The Hellenic Initiative, which provides humanitarian aid and supports sustainable development in Greece. She also volunteers at her home parish in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and her grandparents’ parish in New Castle, Pennsylvania. Ward’s connection to her heritage is active, purposeful and rooted in the values passed down by her grandparents who immigrated from Trikala, Greece.

Honorees will be recognized at a special ceremony on November 20.
