Bankruptcy and Creditors' Rights

Our practice is devoted to enforcing the rights of creditors -- both secured and unsecured – for clients ranging from premier financial institutions and non-bank lenders to debt investors and trade creditors.

We counsel lenders restructuring credit facilities, trade creditors seeking protection of their rights – both in and out of bankruptcy and receivership court – and buyers purchasing assets at bankruptcy court sales and secured party sales. We work with secured creditors to enforce their rights under their security documents, and landlords addressing rejection, assumption and assignment of leases in bankruptcy court. We represent creditors in pursuit of fraudulent transfer remedies and in defense of preferential transfers under the federal bankruptcy code.

Joe DiOrio is frequently appointed as a state court receiver or bankruptcy trustee where he is charged with administering debt, liquidating property and satisfying creditor obligations pursuant to federal and state law.
