Bankruptcy + Insolvency

Creditors often find they are unable to secure their collateral because a customer has filed for protection under the federal bankruptcy laws. Our firm has extensive experience representing secured creditors in obtaining relief from the Automatic Bankruptcy Stay, objecting to unfavorable Chapter 13 Plans, protecting clients’ security interests and prosecuting non-dischargeability actions. Like the Wisconsin Consumer Act, the Bankruptcy Code requires strict compliance with its requirements. Although we continuously work with our clients to ensure that their policies and procedures comply with the latest iterations and interpretations of the Bankruptcy Code, problems may arise. We bring the full breadth and depth of our experience to limit our clients’ exposure and liability in lien avoidance actions, Automatic Stay violations and motions for the turnover of property.
