Ice Miller Welcomes Partner Jay Augustyn

Ice Miller LLP welcomes Jay Augustyn, a partner in the Firm’s Real Estate Practice. He focuses his practice on real estate transactions, including development, financing, sales and dispositions.
 
Before rejoining the Firm, Jay was a real estate partner at a large Chicago-based law firm. While there, Jay represented a self-managed integrated commercial real estate investment and asset management company organized as a public real estate investment trust in the acquisition and disposition of over one hundred industrial, warehouse and office properties in the U.S. He also represented a credit and asset based investor in the acquisition, disposition and financing of over thirty hotel properties in the U.S. and a sovereign wealth fund in connection with the acquisition of hotel properties in Bal Harbour, Florida; Washington, D.C. and Miami, Florida.
 
From 2008 to 2012, Jay was an attorney at Ice Miller LLP.
 
“Jay’s vast real estate transactional experience, including those related to commercial, industrial, warehouse and hotel properties, will be an asset to our clients,” said Steve Humke, chief managing partner for Ice Miller. “We are excited to welcome Jay back to the Firm.” 
 
Jay earned his juris doctor, cum laude, from the University of Illinois School of Law in 2008. He received his Bachelor of Arts in English from the University of Michigan in 2000, where he participated in Naval ROTC. Upon graduation, Jay first served as a main propulsion division officer aboard USS NASSAU (LHA 4).
