About

Provided by Ballard Spahr LLP

The Delaware Bankruptcy Group of Ballard Spahr prides itself on serving as first-chair counsel in the vast majority of its cases. While our group partners with many firms to serve as Delaware or local counsel, unlike many Delaware based bankruptcy practices, our lawyers have established a first-rate national practice and presence.


With 15 offices throughout the U.S., our Bankruptcy and Restructuring practice group provides comprehensive services to clients nationwide. Our experience ranges from corporate restructurings, including Chapter 11 debtor and creditor matters, to Chapter 9 municipal insolvencies including Detroit and San Bernardino, distressed real estate, and distressed M&A.

 

We advise on all facets of financial distress, including restructurings, workouts, the refinancing of debt, creditor-debtor litigation, asset dispositions and recapitalizations, reorganizations, and liquidations, both in and outside of formal proceedings.
