Our Bankruptcy attorneys are distinguished precisely by their broad-based experience. Unlike "boutiques" offering one type of representation, our attorneys have represented creditors (secured and unsecured), lessors and lessees, debtors, trustees and creditors' committees on a variety of pre-bankruptcy workouts and complex bankruptcy liquidations and reorganizations. Utilizing a team approach with these attorneys and industry specialists, we offer representation in a wide variety of businesses affected by insolvency, whether pending or imminent.
We have handled bankruptcies, foreclosures and receiverships. The group's skills and practical experience are invaluable in representing lenders in workouts, foreclosures and bankruptcies. In workouts, as well as in foreclosures and bankruptcies, we frequently assist in developing the critical "game plan." We are well versed in crisis management techniques to maximize time, preserve value and increase cash flow.
We assist with insolvent estates, complex workouts and other matters and have served as counsel for equity receivers appointed in federal enforcement actions brought by government agencies.
We can serve as liaison between creditor and debtor, and in negotiating and documenting restructurings. We can assist in performing operating, legal and management audits, and advise on bankruptcy and disposition issues. Our Firm's familiarity with business operations, sales, purchases and financing enables our attorneys to help maximize asset value in the shortest possible time.
