Bankruptcy and Restructuring
 
The Bankruptcy and Restructuring Practice Group represents a diverse client base, including banks, corporations, financial institutions, commercial landlords and creditors' committees. Clients turn to Kelley Drye for experienced counsel and representation for out-of-court workouts, in-court restructurings and liquidations around the country. Although our clients confront a broad array of challenges and issues, our approach is uniform - we formulate and implement practical and workable solutions to maximize the preferred business result.

Our practice is dedicated to settling complex and sophisticated creditors' rights problems quickly and efficiently, recognizing that the best approach to resolving insolvency issues is out-of-court, or through accelerated judicial proceedings.

Where out-of-court solutions are unavailable, we pursue our clients' interests through chapter 11 and other court proceedings, capitalizing on the Firm's ability to litigate bankruptcy matters aggressively and efficiently. Kelley Drye employs a comprehensive approach to crises precipitated by insolvency events and the need for insolvency counseling in many industries by accessing Kelley Drye's significant litigation, corporate, securities, real estate and tax practices, and our targeted interdisciplinary practice groups in telecommunications, advertising, economic consulting, government relations, international trade, project finance, energy, healthcare and technology.

We also educate clients and help them draft loan documents, sales contracts and leases, and coordinate with the Firm's other practice groups to structure transactions in ways that minimize or eliminate bankruptcy related exposure. Through forethought and planning, we safeguard rights that a business may have otherwise considered unsalvageable.
