Bankruptcy/Restructuring

Morris James advises clients across the full range of roles in Chapter 11 cases, in the District of Delaware and in courts around the country, on both a lead and a co-counsel basis. National firms regularly retain us as Delaware counsel in complex restructurings, where our knowledge of local rules, practice, and the bankruptcy bench helps move cases efficiently.

• Debtors
• Official and ad hoc committees of creditors and equity holders
• Debtor management and insiders
• Individual creditors, including landlords and trade creditors
• DIP lenders
