Creditors’ Rights in Bankruptcy

A bankruptcy filing abruptly changes the game for the creditor trying to collect a debt because many collection tools may no longer apply. For instance, the automatic stay in bankruptcy can put an immediate halt on all collections, including foreclosures and repossessions. An experienced creditors’ attorney, however, knows how to apply for relief from the automatic stay when it is in the best interests of the creditor to do so. Where possible and practicable, we may obtain such relief and proceed with collections accordingly.

When relief from stay is not the best option, we play an active, diligent role in the bankruptcy process to make sure our clients’ rights are protected to the fullest extent possible. Protecting creditors’ rights in bankruptcy requires more than simply filing a claim with the bankruptcy court. We make sure our clients are heard in the development and confirmation of any repayment plan, including making objections in a timely and appropriate manner.

Our attorneys know how the different types of bankruptcy laws operate. Whether the case involves a consumer bankruptcy or business bankruptcy—in Chapter 7, Chapter 11, or Chapter 13—our lawyers offer practical advice and confident legal representation to protect and enforce creditors’ rights.
