Receivership

Receivership is a state court remedy that provides creditors with a method of preserving assets. A Receiver is an officer and representative of the court, appointed to take possession of, protect, and preserve property that is the subject of pending litigation, to assist in the enforcement of a judgment or to continue ongoing business operations. A receivership can create income potential for a creditor and reallocate the troubled business’s priorities if it faces insolvency. It can serve as a transition to a sale and represents a viable alternative to Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Our lawyers are familiar with the limited written law regarding receiverships, the various circuit court judges’ approaches to receiverships, the unique procedural rules and how to preserve and protect the interests of all parties cost effectively.

Supplier Disputes

Our business litigation attorneys take the time to understand the operations and objectives of our clients. They look at the nature of the contracts that a business has with clients, vendors, and suppliers.

Insurance Litigation

Insurance is a highly complex, specialized area of the law with the potential to affect parties ranging from large corporations to homeowners and small-business owners. Disputes about insurance can involve underwriting issues, questions and concerns regarding coverage and interpretation of an insurance policy, performance of policy conditions by the policyholder and the insurer, and the appropriateness of an insurer’s claim handling and decisions.
