Firm attorneys also undertake creditor representation in consumer cases within North Carolina and, on the national level, advise national consumer credit companies with regard to policy, defend class action suits and provide representation and advice in exception cases nationwide.

In the area of business bankruptcy, our attorneys represent bank lenders, trade creditors, lessors, committees of unsecured creditors and other court appointed committees, equity holders, buyers purchasing assets from bankrupt companies and others involved in Chapter 11 cases nationwide.

For business debtors, we will file Chapter 7 liquidation or Chapter 11 reorganization proceedings and handle all aspects of the Chapter 11 case. Our firm attorneys in other practice areas such as employee benefits, corporate, environmental, etc. enable our firm to handle all aspects of a case without the necessity for additional "special counsel."

Our creditors’ rights practice actively advises lenders and trade creditors in matters designed to protect them from exposure in the event a customer files bankruptcy and to enhance the collectibility of accounts receivable. The firm also handles collections and foreclosures for creditor clients and workouts for lenders.
