Creditor’s Rights Lawyer

Boca Raton, Ft. Lauderdale and South Florida

Overview of Creditor’s Rights Litigation

All too often, creditors receive bankruptcy notices and assume that once a debtor declares bankruptcy, they have no right to a claim against the debtor. While federal bankruptcy law does protect the debtor, it is also set up to provide significant protections against unpaid debt. The bankruptcy court has broad discretion to deny discharge of debts in the bankruptcy process.

Under bankruptcy, creditors do have rights. They have the right to share in the distribution from the bankruptcy estate, based on the priority of their claim. They also have the right to be heard by the court in matters concerning the debtor’s plan and to challenge the right of the debtor’s discharge. However, it is important to understand how you can protect your ability to secure and collect debts during consumer and business bankruptcies.

We assist businesses in commercial collections and represent creditors during bankruptcy, with the intention of denying debtor discharge. We act as local counsel to national corporations, including workout departments for financial institutions, providing representation in court.
