Bankruptcy Litigation
It has been said that it is difficult to be a good bankruptcy attorney without being a good litigator. However, even the most experienced civil litigators may find themselves at a disadvantage in bankruptcy litigation unless they also are experienced in bankruptcy practice. At Crane, Simon, Clar & Goodman, our attorneys have cultivated a breadth of knowledge that enables them to thoroughly analyze and manage all types of bankruptcy litigation.
We represent debtors, secured and unsecured creditors, landlords, Chapter 7 and Chapter 11 bankruptcy trustees and creditors' committees in Chapter 11 cases. Among the many bankruptcy litigation matters Crane Simon has successfully resolved are:
- Prosecution or defense of fraudulent transfer and preference claims;
- Allowance and disallowance of claims;
- Prosecution or defense of Complaints objecting to discharge and dischargeability;
- Prosecution or defense of Complaints seeking turnover of property of the estate;
- Enforcement or defense of automatic stay issues;
- Preliminary injunctions and temporary restraining orders;
- Contested bankruptcy asset sales and purchases; and
- Bankruptcy appeals.
