Andrew R Turner
Bankruptcy and Insolvency

When a financial crisis looms, clients need knowledgeable guidance in making critical decisions quickly and intelligently. In bankruptcy matters, we primarily represent creditors, strategic buyers, equity holders, and those involved in bankruptcy planning. In addition, Conner & Winters' veteran bankruptcy and insolvency attorneys provide clients with advice on a full continuum of insolvency-related matters, from risk analysis to bankruptcy representation.

Insightful about diverse viewpoints

We appreciate the varied perspectives of the interested parties who face insolvency issues, including bankruptcy debtors, creditors, trustees, creditor committees, asset purchasers, financial institutions, and individuals. We understand the different windows of opportunity that arise for each, both before and during every aspect of complex reorganization proceedings, and we know how to help our varied clients preserve value.

Adept in all phases of insolvency advice and support

The firm’s approach to insolvency and bankruptcy practice includes risk analysis, planning, preparation, negotiation, and, as a last resort, litigation. In handling business transactions, the firm’s attorneys anticipate the possible bankruptcy of other parties and protect our clients’ interests accordingly. When financial difficulties begin, our attorneys counsel clients on how best to protect themselves and to preserve valuable business opportunities and assets. When defaults occur or a bankruptcy is filed, we assist clients in negotiating acceptable solutions. If litigation cannot be avoided, our attorneys are fully prepared to aggressively pursue the clients’ interests in court, and have successfully done so in many federal bankruptcy and federal district courts, as well as in several United States Circuit Courts of Appeal.

Practiced in finding practical solutions

Conner & Winters attorneys have the required skills and business background to assist clients dealing with the financial insecurity of a business partner and can help financially troubled clients in attempting to avoid formal bankruptcy proceedings. We make recommendations regarding the restructuring of loans or other financing and the restructuring of equity and debt, and additionally help implement strategies involving securities, mergers and acquisitions. We help address corporate governance issues. We negotiate settlements. We help our clients strengthen their critical relationships. Our attorneys additionally handle real estate and other asset sales or purchases, banking and finance matters, the sale or restructuring of going concerns and the unique tax, securities, energy, labor and employment, and other specialized issues arising in insolvency matters. Whatever the situation, our firm will help analyze potential remedies and search for practical answers.
