Bankruptcy Litigation

When disputes arise during bankruptcy, it takes experience, dedication and bankruptcy law knowledge to achieve a successful outcome. And that’s why people turn Ashford-Schael LLC.

Ashford-Schael LLC provides cost-effective, experienced representation to defendants in bankruptcy litigation in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. The firm also represents defendants in Delaware Bankruptcy Court and other states on a case-by-case admission to practice.

Cost-Effective, Aggressive Representation By Experienced Counsel

As a practice, the firm’s goal is to provide clients with representation to carry them through the challenges ahead. In litigation, this means taking on stressful, high-stakes issues head-on. The firm represents defendants in all types of litigation before the Bankruptcy Courts, including:

  • Avoidance actions: A legal action to nullify or reverse transactions made by the debtor before filing, to recover assets transferred out of the debtor’s estate.
  • Preference actions: “Preference” refers to actions that a debtor takes – prior to filing – to give a creditor more than their share as entitled by bankruptcy.
  • Fraudulent transfer actions: These are actions taken to void transfers made by the debtor with the intent to hinder, delay, or defraud creditors.
  • Subordination litigation: Subordination refers to the reordering of creditor priorities, often as a result of inequitable conduct by a creditor.

The firm offers flexible pricing for preference action defense, including flat fees. Ashford-Schael LLC’s clients benefit from individualized attention to their matters and prompt easy access to their bankruptcy attorney.

Providing Counsel For General Commercial Litigation

General commercial disputes related to a bankruptcy debtor are sometimes litigated in the Bankruptcy Courts, such as breach of contract, employment litigation, fraud or misrepresentation. Ashford-Schael LLC provides cost-effective legal representation to help clients address and resolve such disputes. The firm works diligently to protect their clients’ interests, whether through negotiation or courtroom litigation—providing dedicated and knowledgeable legal representation throughout the litigation process
