Creditor's Bankruptcy Claims and Litigation

When a borrower or debtor files for bankruptcy there are certain steps that you as a creditor have to take in managing your ongoing collection activities and preserving your right to recover and be paid.

You do have rights under the Bankruptcy Code to be paid on your claims and to protect your collateral. Whether your borrower or debtor has filed for Chapter 11, Chapter 7, or Chapter 13 protection, we can outline the steps you need to take to have your claim honored, to ensure the greatest possible recovery, and to protect your security interests. Many bankruptcy cases feature a complex interplay of rights between various competing creditors, and keeping your claim at the forefront is our constant goal. When circumstances demand it, we will vigorously pursue the necessary bankruptcy litigation or adversary proceedings in pursuit of your goals. Whether you are initiating adversary proceedings in bankruptcy or defending litigation, we are prepared and have the experience to successfully guide you through the process to get a successful result. The Bankruptcy Code provides a number of rights but Creditors need to know how to assert them. Helping you assert your rights is at the heart of everything we do.
