We assist businesses in restructuring their financial affairs and operations to regain stability and maximize value for stakeholders. We guide clients through the complex process of creating and implementing a reorganization plan, negotiating with creditors, and addressing various legal issues that arise during Chapter 11 proceedings.

We represent commercial and investment banks, vendors, lessors, private equity agent banks, administrative agents for bank groups and other financial institutions in their management of troubled credit, restructuring of lending relationships and lender liability defense in and out of bankruptcy court.

We advise on all aspects of commercial transactions, the Uniform Commercial Code and secured transactions. Our Commercial Transactions attorneys provide advice with respect to structuring secured transactions, reviewing, and analyzing the property used as collateral in such transactions, and drafting transactional documents. Our attorneys regularly prepare and negotiate legal opinions concerning the effect of bankruptcy on financial transactions and the perfection of security interests. Our attorneys have experience in all types of personal property financing.

We regularly represent clients in appellate and trial matters in federal and state courts. Our firm has vast experience in prosecuting and defending fraudulent transfer and preference actions, and all other litigation arising in debtor/creditor or bankruptcy contexts.
