Financial Restructuring & Bankruptcy

Neal Gerber Eisenberg’s award-winning financial restructuring and bankruptcy practice has played leading roles in nationally significant restructurings of public and private companies across the country. We represent debtors, creditors and financially distressed companies—including financial institutions, businesses and individuals—in the full range of insolvency matters, from out-of-court restructurings to formal reorganization and liquidation proceedings.

The Turnaround Management Association presented our restructuring practice in 2010 with its Mid-Size Transaction of the Year Award. The award honors and recognizes professionals who led transactions that “rescued companies from the shadow of complete ruin.” In addition, Chambers USA has labeled the practice as a leader, reporting that “its experience of out-of-court restructurings, reorganizations and liquidation has gained it respect from peers and admiration from clients.” U.S.News-Best Lawyers’ 2010 Best Law Firms survey also ranked the practice as among the best in the nation.

Our attorneys generate success for clients by bringing a business-oriented and bottom-line approach to each situation, enabling us to meet each client’s unique objectives and surpass its expectations. This approach is enhanced by years of developing favorable legal solutions to challenging engagements across many sectors, including the airline, automotive, steel, financial services, real estate, retail, media and technology industries.
