NEW YORK, NY, September 30, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Boris Serebro has been selected for inclusion in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Dr. Serebro has built a distinguished legal career spanning more than two decades, with particular expertise in business transactions, commercial real estate and corporate law. Since 2010, he has served as managing partner of Serebro Law PLLC, a boutique firm he established after his partners at Olonoff Asen & Serebro LLP retired. Drawing on his extensive legal experience and understanding of international business, he built the firm into a practice offering sophisticated legal and business services comparable to those of large firms, while maintaining a more personalized, cost-effective approach.

A significant part of his practice involves advising international investors and entrepreneurs navigating the U.S. legal and business environment. His ability to bridge cultural and communication differences has helped him build long-standing relationships with clients — including businesses and investors who previously worked with major law firms — and has proven especially valuable in structuring business operations, negotiating transactions, and addressing complex legal and tax matters, including strategies to help international clients avoid double taxation.

Among his notable achievements, Dr. Serebro represented international investors in the development of one of the largest (750-seat) and most expensive ($65 million) restaurant spaces ever built in New York City.

From 2001 to 2009, Dr. Serebro was a partner at Olonoff Asen & Serebro LLP, where he chaired the firm's real estate and corporate departments, handling complex real estate and business transactions and further establishing his reputation for sophisticated legal analysis and strategic decision-making.

Earlier in his career, he was an associate at Squadron Ellenoff Plesent & Sheinfeld LLP, providing legal services to prominent clients including Lehman Brothers and News Corporation — an early opportunity that strengthened his foundation in business and real estate law.

Before entering law, Dr. Serebro developed a technical background in environmental science, serving as director of strategic development of the Water Supply System at the New York City Department of Environmental Protection, where he applied his analytical expertise to large-scale infrastructure development projects. That engineering background continues to support his analytical approach to legal and business matters today.

Dr. Serebro is a member of the New York State Bar Association and the New York City Bar Association. He is also a member of the United States Tennis Association and remains active in competitive tennis at the national and international levels.

His academic background reflects a combination of mathematical, technical and legal training. He earned a Master of Science in applied mathematics from Odesa State University (Ukraine) and a Ph.D. in environmental engineering from the Moscow Institute of Civil Engineers (Russia) before completing his Juris Doctor at the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University in White Plains, New York. He credits this pre-legal education with sharpening the analytical skills he now applies to drafting complex agreements and managing multi-party negotiations.

Beyond his professional achievements, Dr. Serebro is committed to humanitarian work. Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, he responded to an urgent appeal from Kyiv's largest children's hospital, helping arrange the procurement and shipping of vital medical equipment for critically ill children sheltering underground. He has also supported refugee sponsorship through the Uniting for Ukraine (U4U) program, encouraging community groups to collectively support displaced Ukrainians seeking safety in the United States.

Outside the law, tennis remains central to Dr. Serebro's life. A certified tennis professional, he continues to compete in singles events at an elite level, with the ambition of representing the United States on the international stage.

Dr. Serebro's career — from engineering to law — reflects a consistent thread of resilience, adaptability and strategic thinking in navigating complex challenges.
