Our creditor's rights attorneys regularly represent financial institutions, businesses and individuals faced with debtor defaults. At Morton & Germany, our lawyers know how to quickly identify the issues facing creditors and act promptly to protect our clients' rights. Often creditors face time criticalities that require rapid responses in order to prevent the loss of pledged collateral or the dissipation of debtor assets. Our attorneys have substantial experience obtaining extraordinary relief to prevent unnecessary loss of secured property or assets. In order to prevent the loss of collateral or other violations of our clients' creditor rights, we have successfully obtained:

• injunctions
• restraining orders
• writs of attachment, and
• writs of possession

We regularly counsel our clients concerning loan workouts and restructuring, trials in state and federal courts, and contested matters in bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings.
We regularly represent financial institutions, businesses and individuals involved in bankruptcy proceedings, including:

• Adversary proceedings, including claims of preferential payments, fraudulent conveyances, turnovers, lien avoidance, and set-offs,
• Chapters 7, 11 and 13 bankruptcy proceedings,
• Actions for relief from the automatic stay of 11 U.S.C. � 362,
