BUSINESS DEPARTMENT   |   Debtor & Creditor Rights/Insolvency & Bankruptcy

In order to preserve current assets and limit both existing and future liabilities, businesses in distress must retain an attorney who possesses a thorough understanding of applicable state and federal bankruptcy and creditor rights laws. Likewise, lending institutions and other creditors who seek to collect from debtors in default without the assistance of skilled and knowledgeable counsel run the substantial risk of losing their ability to collect monies owed to them. While a failure to understand or adhere to applicable creditors’ rights laws and/or bankruptcy proceedings can lead to disastrous consequences, sound advice and assistance from counsel can eliminate or substantially mitigate an otherwise unpleasant situation.

The firm’s Debtor & Creditor Rights/Insolvency & Bankruptcy Practice Area is part of the firm's Business Department and is supported by the experience of other Offit Kurman lawyers working in related areas such as corporate law, tax, litigation, real estate, intellectual property and labor and employment law.
