Guiding Clients Through Financial Distress
Esbrook P.C. represents debtors, creditors, official committees, and other stakeholders through every stage of financial distress — from federal bankruptcy proceedings to state dissolutions, receiverships and liquidations (“ABCs”), to out-of-court workouts. Our attorneys have played a role in a broad range of bankruptcy cases in courts across the country.
We serve as lead and local (Delaware, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey) counsel to debtors, creditors’ committees, liquidating trusts, secured and unsecured creditors, special servicers, landlords, officers and directors, acquirers of assets, and investors in bankruptcy cases. We also represent parties in litigation concerning preferential and fraudulent transfers, and we regularly advise on debtor-in-possession financing and other complex commercial lending transactions.
Our restructuring practice extends beyond the bankruptcy courtroom. We advise clients on all aspects of creditors’ rights, including friendly foreclosures and the various ways to wind down an entity — through judicial and extra-judicial dissolutions, assignments for the benefit of creditors (ABCs), and chapter 7 filings.
