Bankruptcy Litigation
Our clients involved in bankruptcy litigation benefit from the ability of our financial restructuring attorneys to combine litigation experience with in-depth knowledge of bankruptcy law and procedure. We regularly defend against preference, fraudulent conveyance and other avoidance actions brought by debtors-in-possession or trustees.
In addition to these relatively straightforward bankruptcy litigation matters, lawyers in the Firm have often represented clients in other adversary proceedings in the bankruptcy court and in connection with appeals of bankruptcy decisions. Our lawyers have regularly been engaged as special counsel or co-counsel to other law firms in bankruptcy matters. In these matters, our role varies from lead bankruptcy counsel to special consultant or advisor. We have often been retained by bankruptcy trustees and committees as special counsel to pursue complicated bankruptcy litigation for the benefit of the creditors of the estate. It is in these more complex matters that the Firm has been able to blend the expertise, skills and depth of its financial restructuring and litigation practices.
