Bankruptcy Litigation

 

Our creditors' rights and bankruptcy practice group has extensive experience defending and prosecuting claims brought in bankruptcy contested matters and adversary proceedings, including avoidance and recovery actions, turnover actions, nondischargeability actions, involuntary petitions, equitable subordination and lender liability suits, among others. Our bankruptcy attorneys recognize and understand the interface between general litigation and bankruptcy actions, and partner frequently with lawyers from our commercial litigation practice area. Together we are able to provide clients with the full benefit of the defenses and procedural safeguards available to them regardless of the forum in which the claim or matter arises.

Our bankruptcy litigators have also represented clients in cases on appeal with broad reaching implications. With extensive appellate experience, and attorneys who have served as law clerks in the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, the Supreme Court of Ohio, and Ohio appellate courts, we are well prepared to handle any challenge that may arise on appeal.
