California Bankruptcy Attorneys
Promoting Creditor Protection
The firm assists the creditor in determining how its interest can be best served, whether through the bankruptcy process or in and out of court negotiations. Although predictably, the creditor's objective is to maximize recovery of liabilities from the debtor entity, often a creditor has other priorities, such as ensuring the business survives bankruptcy and provides future earnings for the creditor. Benefits from the on-going business relationship with the debtor entity may outweigh collecting outstanding accounts receivable. The firm is accomplished at facilitating this analysis and implementing an appropriate recovery strategy.
Creditor Representation
The firm's professionalism and sophistication in handling insolvency matters for creditors is exemplified by the way in which our attorneys are able to analyze a creditor’s situation and respond quickly and decisively to protect the creditor’s position and obtain the highest and best recovery on a claim. The firm's creditor representation includes representation of general unsecured creditors, creditor committees, and secured creditors, such as voluntary lien holders, judgment creditors, as well as priority claimants such as landlords, warehousemen, freight carriers and logistic firms or other parties that have extended credit to a debtor.
Creditors who are owed significant amounts by a person or entity in bankruptcy are entitled to aggressive representation with a goal of maximizing the recovery and minimizing the disruption to the affairs of the creditor.
