Bankruptcy and Creditors’ Rights

Our knowledgeable attorneys have extensive experience protecting business creditor's rights during bankruptcy proceedings. We work directly with each client to maximize the recoveries available and to protect them from debtor fraud. One of our skilled attorneys, Michele McKinnon, is the only Board Certified Creditors' Rights specialist in Brown County.

Our Firm will represent and protect our clients in state insolvency cases and federal bankruptcy proceedings to ensure their best interests are met. We guide clients through the complex maze of legal issues that can arise when a borrower becomes insolvent, such as determining secured status, gaining relief from the automatic stay, litigating priority disputes, defending preference demands, analyzing post-petition financing requests, prosecuting adversary actions, and evaluating proposed plans of distribution. We also support clients with collections by securing collateral and maximizing payments from the debtor during bankruptcy proceedings. We press judgment debtors for payment using garnishments, supplemental examination, attachments and other available solutions. 
 
The attorneys that work in our Bankruptcy and Creditors’ Rights department are tough and experienced at bankruptcy litigation. Our attorneys are also skilled enough to know when to negotiate a settlement that will protect a client’s interests and reduces the cost and uncertainty of further litigation. Protecting our clients is always our first priority.
