Bankruptcy & Insolvency Litigation
Bankruptcy and insolvency litigation demands a careful balance between aggressive advocacy and strategic protection of financial interests. Fields Howell represents insurers, financial institutions, and corporate clients in navigating the legal complexities that arise when policyholders, business partners, or counterparties face financial distress. We provide targeted counsel in high-stakes matters where asset recovery and legal positioning are paramount.
Strategic Defense Amid Financial Distress
Fields Howell attorneys are experienced in all facets of bankruptcy and insolvency litigation, including adversary proceedings, fraudulent conveyance claims, and preference actions. We represent insurers, creditors, and policyholders in both defensive and offensive roles, often involving complex insurance-related disputes that intersect with bankruptcy filings.
Our team has defended against aggressive actions brought by trustees and creditors, including efforts to unwind prior transactions or challenge claims through discharge litigation. In other cases, we’ve helped clients assert their rights and pursue claims in bankruptcy court to recover losses or preserve contractual obligations.
With a strong understanding of federal bankruptcy procedures and creditor rights, Fields Howell has successfully advised Fortune 500 companies, financial institutions, and privately held businesses through every stage of the insolvency process. Whether our role involves enforcing subrogation rights, negotiating settlements, or litigating in adversarial forums, our approach remains focused on preserving value, minimizing exposure, and protecting our clients’ long-term financial interests.
