Bankruptcy and Creditors' Rights

Bankruptcy and Other Insolvency Proceedings

Our attorneys represent lenders, debtors, committees, DIP lenders, landlords, unsecured creditors, trustees, bondholders, equity holders, contract parties, professional advisors, receivers and various other parties-in-interest in bankruptcy proceedings, receiverships and other insolvency proceedings. These engagements encompass every aspect of insolvency proceedings including reorganizations, liquidations, asset sales, DIP financing, avoidance actions and other adversarial proceedings and claims transfers.

Debt Restructurings and Workouts

Reinhart attorneys have a wealth of experience in out-of-court restructurings and workouts and are adept at dealing with the diverse and often competing interests of the various constituencies involved in these types of transactions. They regularly represent financial institutions and other lenders, borrowers, creditors and equity holders to restructure debt and equity to provide maximum recoveries for creditors, while preserving the viability of the business.

Distressed Acquisitions

The Reinhart Bankruptcy and Creditors' Rights team has developed a very active practice in the acquisition and sale of businesses and assets out of distressed situations. Reinhart attorneys bring to the table an expertise in both insolvency and transactional law, along with vast experience in negotiating, structuring and documenting distressed transactions. 

Creditors' Rights

Reinhart attorneys regularly counsel secured and unsecured creditors in matters involving the collection of commercial indebtedness. They handle matters involving creditors' rights litigation, mortgage foreclosures, the enforcement of security interests and the prosecution of claims in insolvency proceedings.
