Platt Richmond represents creditors, lenders, financial institutions, landlords, trade vendors, trustees, investors, and other stakeholders in bankruptcy, insolvency, and creditor’s rights matters.
Our practice is focused on protecting claims, enforcing remedies, maximizing recoveries, and preserving leverage when counterparties face financial distress or payment defaults.
We provide practical, business-minded counsel in both in-court and out-of-court matters, with strategies tailored to each client’s economic objectives and risk tolerance.
When a bankruptcy case is filed, creditors need counsel who can move quickly and understand the interplay between litigation, leverage, and recovery. We represent parties in Chapter 7, Chapter 11, and other insolvency proceedings involving cash collateral disputes, stay litigation, claims objections, plan negotiations and confirmation issues, asset sales, discharge and dischargeability litigation, and disputes involving the assumption, assignment, and rejection of executory contracts and leases. We also advise clients on protecting contractual rights and navigating ongoing business relationships during insolvency proceedings.
Outside of bankruptcy, Platt Richmond aggressively pursues creditor remedies under state and federal law. Our attorneys handle loan enforcement, guaranty litigation, foreclosure-related disputes, receiverships, turnover actions, post-judgment collections, UCC remedies, and other enforcement proceedings designed to recover collateral and collect outstanding obligations. We also counsel clients in workouts, restructurings, and negotiated resolutions when a consensual path offers the best business outcome.
