Our mission in bankruptcy litigation is multi-fold: to drive creditor recoveries and recover capital for investors, while also providing the highest caliber of service and championing the rights of creditors. We hold bad actors accountable. We’re practical, strategic, hard-working, and incredibly good at what we do. We work on a full contingency fee basis, fundamentally aligning our interests with our clients, in pursuit of the most effective and efficient case strategies. We like to have “skin in the game,” allowing us to share with our clients in their litigation success.
Grant & Eisenhofer’s bankruptcy and distressed litigation attorneys zealously represent institutional investors, distressed investors, ad hoc committees, liquidators and post confirmation litigation trustees in complex, high-value actions.
What we SEe on the Horizon
A Broadening of Targets
- High Volume of Large, Complex Chapter 11 cases driven into bankruptcy by fraud and transactions driven by ulterior motives
- Surging fraudulent conveyance and fraud-based litigation —with banks, auditors and sponsors increasingly in the crosshairs, along with the debtors’ officers, directors, and insiders
- Complex Commercial Transactions subject to an ever-evolving Section 546(e) Safe-harbor Landscape, with key decisions to shape the future reach of trustee claims
The Reasons Plaintiffs Hire Us
Grant & Eisenhofer litigates against large financial institutions, global accounting firms and private equity sponsors and issuers. As money helps to hold people accountable, our bankruptcy and distressed litigation practice is also a complementary to so many others, including:
- U.S. and International Securities
- Delaware Chancery Court
- Environmental Contamination
- Consumer Protection
- Survivors of Sexual Abuse
When a company restructures, there is only so much equity, so much debt. But we pursue and—if we are brought in early enough—regularly find underappreciated asset classes that then become allocable to people who have been harmed. We understand the complexity, the competing interests and that, even in the toughest cases, there is still often value to be realized. Grant & Eisenhofer’s lengthy record of significant results is attributed to its philosophy of pursuing only quality, meritorious cases.
