Bankruptcy: Debtor and Creditor Representation in Bankruptcy Proceedings and Litigation

Our firm represents both debtors and creditors in bankruptcy proceedings and collection actions. We also represent individuals and companies who become involved in litigation matters in bankruptcy court.

We routinely represent creditors in a broad range of legal matters, including state court collections, foreclosures, proving claims, motions for relief from stay, and objections to plans and confirmation.

We also represent individual debtors in Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 proceedings, where we assist debtors in obtaining a “fresh start” under the Bankruptcy Code. This enables them to discharge certain debts, retain their homes, vehicles, and other property, and work to rebuild their credit.

Finally, we defend our clients in lawsuits filed in bankruptcy cases, including preference litigation, claims objections, and fraudulent transfer litigation.

Bankruptcy practice requires a unique set of skills. It requires a working knowledge of how businesses operate and an understanding of accounting. It requires litigation skills in conducting examinations of witnesses, reviewing documents, legal research and writing, oral advocacy, and a mastery of court rules, state and federal exemption laws, federal bankruptcy statutes and case law, and knowledge of bankruptcy court procedural rules. Our bankruptcy attorneys have the skills and experience to provide you dedicated and effective representation.

Our representation of both debtors and creditors allows us to see and understand the strengths and weaknesses of both sides of bankruptcy matters. Whether representing creditors or debtors, we aggressively represent our clients to achieve their goals. If you or your company is facing debt issues, creditor issues, or bankruptcy litigation, contact us to discuss your situation.
