Bankruptcy can be daunting to those who are not regularly exposed to this area. Business and personal financial failures happen, however, and our substantial, wide-ranging and hands-on experience enables us to provide sound counsel when they do.

We have represented institutional and individual lenders, investors, mortgagees, venture capitalists, publishers, factors, landlords, credit card companies, sellers, purchasers and employees, among others, as secured and unsecured creditors and parties in interest, as well as trustees and petitioning creditors, in small, medium-sized and large cases under Chapters 11, 7 and 13 of the Bankruptcy Code and in out-of-court restructurings and liquidations. Our attorneys have participated in many well known and sophisticated bankruptcy cases such as R.H. Macy & Co., Inc., Drexel Burnham Lambert Group, Inc., Calumet Farm and The New York Post.

Our attorneys have successfully represented companies as debtors-in-possession in business reorganization cases, and in non-judicial debt workouts, liquidations and state insolvency proceedings in diverse areas, including retail sales, manufacturing, commercial real estate, graphic design, advertising, construction and marketing research. We have represented individuals from a wide variety of backgrounds as consumer debtors in hundreds of cases under Chapters 7 and 13 of the Bankruptcy Code, and in thousands of out-of-court debt negotiations.

Clients count on our ability to negotiate workable agreements pertaining to the restructuring of debt from the perspective of both debtors and creditors, and to effectively minimize losses. We regularly help companies and individuals dispose of assets, resolve claims and protect their rights when confronted with financial difficulties of others, as well as their own.
