Unsecured creditors – particularly creditors with significant claims against and extensive business relations with their customers and other contracting parties – have unique interests to protect when those other parties experience financial hardship.
Allen Matkins advises unsecured creditors on a wide range of issues, including filing and prosecuting state court breach of contract, guaranty, and reclamation proceedings, including applications for protective orders and attachment.
EXPERIENCE
Should these or other issues precipitate a bankruptcy filing, we represent creditor clients in:
- Preparation and filing of claims and claim litigation
- Defense of fraudulent-transfer, preference and other avoidance actions
- Plan confirmation disputes
- Motions to dismiss or convert bankruptcy cases
- Trustee litigation
In cases where our clients serve on the committee of unsecured creditors appointed by the Office of the United States Trustee, we will advise a client representative and at times act as our clients’ representative on the committee.
