Bankruptcy, Creditors' Rights & Business Reorganization

The Bankruptcy, Creditors' Rights, and Business Reorganization Department represents secured and unsecured creditors, debtors, creditors' committees, landlords, and bankruptcy trustees, regularly handling all aspects of complex bankruptcies, workouts, reorganizations, debt restructurings, creditors' rights and remedies, loan enforcement and restructuring, and asset sales and acquisitions. We take a multidisciplinary approach by drawing on the extensive resources of our bankruptcy, insurance, financial institutions and real estate, environmental, corporate, labor and employment, health care, intellectual property, tax, and business and tort litigation departments. This integrated approach enables us to provide extensive expertise and unique insight into various industries and practice areas, and allows us to provide legal representation to a wide range of diverse businesses locally, regionally, and nationally. Our collaborative efforts enable us to provide cost efficient, focused, and effective legal representation.

Our practice is nationwide, and extremely varied. It encompasses not only complex bankruptcy matters, but also insurance law (regulation insolvency, fraud, coverage claims and negotiating with insurers and co-insureds), real estate law (sales and leases of nationwide assets, prioritizing liens and restructuring mortgages), environmental law (negotiating settlement of nationwide environmental claims and advice concerning liability), corporate law (restructuring equity and pre-bankruptcy reorganization), labor (litigating and negotiating issues involving liability under ERISA, the WARN Act and union collective bargaining agreements), intellectual property (advise concerning impact to license agreements), tax (strategize and evaluate minimal negative tax implication related to real estate transactions and labor laws), and litigation (complex debt collection litigation and related defense of lender liability claims including securities fraud, ECOA, RICO, and Anti-Tying claims). We have represented virtually every type of party in connection with loan enforcement, workout, and bankruptcy matters.

We have appeared as primary counsel for secured and unsecured creditors and other parties in interest in cases in Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and Washington.
