Creditors' Rights and Bankruptcy Reorganization

The members of our Creditors' Rights and Bankruptcy Reorganization Practice Group have broad experience in all aspects of bankruptcy, reorganization and creditors' rights matters. This experience includes representing secured lenders and other parties in interest in out-of-court restructurings and in Chapter 11 reorganization cases. We also have extensive experience in representing creditors in Uniform Commercial Code lien enforcement issues in state and federal courts. In addition, we provide advice and counsel to our clients on insolvency and bankruptcy issues as they related to proposed financing, real estate and other transactions.
While attempting to resolve matters through negotiation whenever possible, members of our Creditors' Rights and Bankruptcy Reorganization Team are routinely involved in litigating complex matters in bankruptcy courts, including valuation questions, fraudulent transfer and preference actions, DIP financing and use of cash collateral, adequate protection issues and contested confirmation hearings. The Team is also adept at state and federal court litigation involving the enforcement of creditors' rights under the Uniform Commercial Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and state receivership laws.

The members of our Team combine technical knowledge of the highly complex Bankruptcy Code, and other statutes dealing with creditors' rights, practical knowledge of the "real world" bankruptcy process and, as importantly, a sound understanding of the business issues confronting our clients.
