Creditor's Rights, Insolvency, and Bankruptcy
We represent debtors, creditors, and interested parties in court proceedings at the state and federal level, in out-of-court workouts, and in federal bankruptcy cases. We help insolvent businesses and select individuals in their efforts to discharge or restructure existing liabilities and obligations. Our firm also represents creditors in a wide range of contexts, including collection litigation, judgment enforcement, voluntary and involuntary bankruptcy proceedings, and workouts. Our attorneys take a practical approach to bankruptcy and creditor/debtor rights, recognizing the cost and risk of litigation, and the significant value of a speedy resolution of disputes. We begin with a thorough review of the loan, sale, or lease transaction involved, analyzing credit and collateral risks, the possibility of counterclaims, defenses, and the likelihood of a timely and cost effective litigation remedy. Our attorneys then develop and implement a litigation strategy, while simultaneously pursuing reasonable negotiated settlements. We believe that our approach of pursuing both litigation and appropriate negotiation strategies maximizes benefits to clients, while reducing both legal expense and litigation risks.
