The range of collateral security types include contract rights, accounts receivable,  inventories, intellectual property, contract rights, livestock, crops, manufactured goods, work in process, rolling stock, capital stock and limited liability membership rights.

The firm is experienced in dealing with a wide range of tangible and intangible collateral security. Lawyers of the firm have been involved in sizable UCC sales such as the sale of 100% of the capital stock of a 71 store grocery chain and numerous UCC sales of memberships and partnerships in real property entities.

When the enforcement of secured creditor rights are triggered, it is not uncommon for a debtor to file a chapter 11 reorganization in response. The firm is well versed in all aspects of secured creditor representation in chapter 11 reorganizations and other types of bankruptcy proceedings.

When a bankruptcy filing is undertaken by the debtor, the firm can provide a complete suite of bankruptcy related services to its secured creditor clients including motions to lift the automatic stay, the filing of proofs of claims, adequate protection and insurance motions, objections to the use of cash collateral and motions to prohibit the use of cash collateral and  plan confirmation disputes..

Lease assignments which impact adversely upon use restrictions and  issues relating to co-tenancy clauses are also within the scope of the firm’s services to the commercial landlord community.

Tenant bankruptcy reorganizations require that commercial landlords be proactive to protect their rights. This includes motions to compel payment of post-petition administrative rent, motions to compel the debtors to accept or reject the executory lease contracts and negotiating protective terms when debtor tenants are  seeking to sell their leaseholds pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code.
