Trial-Ready Counsel for Bankruptcy Disputes

Sheppard’s Bankruptcy Litigation team is trusted to handle the most complex and sensitive disputes that arise in contested insolvency proceedings.

We regularly appear in bankruptcy courts across the country, representing clients in adversary proceedings, contested plan confirmations, motions for relief from stay, fraudulent transfer and preference actions, cash collateral disputes and appeals. 

Clients value our ability to pair trial experience with restructuring know-how. As actual trial lawyers, not just litigators, our Bankruptcy Litigation team members craft strategies to win cases in bankruptcy court. They handle all aspects of the proceedings, from preparing witnesses to leading evidentiary hearings, trying cases and handling appeals. We also advise on non-judicial foreclosures, guarantor litigation and distressed loan enforcement issues, ensuring continuity from out-of-court workouts to courtroom advocacy. In Texas, we are known for fast, efficient commercial foreclosures; in New York, clients trust our familiarity with the Commercial Division and Southern District judges to help shape a successful strategy; in California, our clients come to us when their largest legal matters are pending before the bankruptcy court.
