Bankruptcy/Restructuring

Klehr Harrison’s original practice focus on bankruptcy and restructuring continues to be a primary attraction to our clients. We develop creative strategies unique to each situation. Frequently, our client’s best course of action is to avoid lengthy and expensive litigation by restructuring troubled loans through forbearance agreements or other consensual arrangements. Other situations call for an aggressive litigation approach or in court restructuring proceedings. Always, we focus on the most effective and efficient strategy to achieve the client’s goals.

We have the sophistication and expertise to handle difficult matters long before a company enters the bankruptcy arena. However, in the context of bankruptcy proceedings, our clients and colleagues tell us that we are among the most aggressive in the nation – a status acquired by always putting our clients’ needs and objectives first.

We are a “go-to” firm in Delaware, for counsel on middle-market distressed situations and in major national restructurings. We are deeply rooted in Delaware’s bankruptcy practice community, which gives us great insight not only into the jurisprudence of the Bankruptcy Code, but also how the Delaware judges have handled issues and cases.
