Gibbons has long maintained a premier insolvency practice from its headquarters in the District of New Jersey. Our Financial Restructuring & Creditors’ Rights (FRCR) Group supports a highly regarded, growing national practice while also leveraging the firm’s significant foothold in the Mid-Atlantic region, particularly the Southern District of New York and District of Delaware, the two preeminent corporate bankruptcy venues in the country. Our practice includes debtor, creditor, and fiduciary representations in federal bankruptcy cases; pre-bankruptcy workout/insolvency counseling; and related state court litigation involving receiverships, attachments, replevins, and commercial foreclosure actions. We have the versatility of having represented all major constituencies in chapter 11 cases and the distinction of having represented a principal party in cutting-edge decisions in the Third Circuit Court of Appeals and across the country.

In Delaware, widely regarded as the corporate capital of the world, our insolvency attorneys rely on firm-wide financial, transactional, and litigation strength to comprehensively serve clients’ needs that span the restructuring landscape and provide innovative solutions for distressed businesses through various formal and informal insolvency proceedings.

Focus areas within our FRCR Department include:
