Rimon is an international law firm with a full range of experience in all aspects of bankruptcy and restructuring. Rimon’s Bankruptcy, Creditors’ Rights and Restructuring team has represented all major constituents in bankruptcy and state insolvency proceedings. We represent debtors, secured creditors, committees of unsecured creditors, bondholder committees, debtor-in-possession (DIP) lenders, landlords, special servicers, trustees, receivers, assignees for the benefit of creditors, and other parties in interest.

We advise a wide range of clients, from large multinational corporations to insiders of small businesses and across industries, including technology, financial institutions, real estate, manufacturing, agriculture, retail, structured finance, law firms and other professional corporations. Our experience in numerous industries enables us to quickly understand the complexities of our client’s business, and its operations, and to help clients implement strategic plans to successfully navigate bankruptcy, restructuring and insolvency proceedings.

Rimon’s Bankruptcy, Creditors’ Rights and Restructuring litigation attorneys have pursued and defended all types of litigation and contested matters in bankruptcy proceedings and adversary proceedings for debtors, creditors, committees, receivers, assignees for benefit of creditors, trustees, post-confirmation trusts, and defendants, from “mega cases” to smaller, individual matters. Through litigation, we have achieved significant results for clients, including successfully confirming and opposing plans of reorganization, increasing recoveries to unsecured creditors, slashing administrative liabilities, and confirming a secured lender’s competing plans of reorganization at contested confirmation hearings.
