Bruner Wright PA lawyers concentrate primarily on commercial Chapter 11 cases. As a dedicated Business Bankruptcy Lawyer firm, we provide bankruptcy advice to clients from a wide range of industries, relying on the experience we’ve gained from our involvement in some of the biggest bankruptcy cases over the last years.
This experience allows us to be able to quickly and efficiently determine which questions to ask at the beginning of a case, what details are important, and how best to distill the facts to create a plan that protects our client’s interests.
Representation of Bankruptcy Cases
Our bankruptcy lawyers are leaders in the United States Bankruptcy Courts and have founded, or been the leader of, organizations across the country that promote the advancement of law and the vitality of local bar associations. Several of our former attorneys have been appointed to the federal judiciary.
Counsel to Debtors and Trustees
As counsel to debtors-in-possession and trustees, our lawyers handle all aspects of commercial bankruptcy cases, from the pre-petition planning to the initial flurry of first-day filings, the arrangement of debtor-in-possession and exit financing, asset sales, and, finally, the development and consummation of a plan of reorganization.
While reorganizing, our clients continue to run their business as usual. Our Business Bankruptcy Lawyer in Pensacola, Florida has the expertise to manage everyday dealings between lenders, trade creditors and lessors, utilities, employees, and the U.S. The committees of trustees, creditors, and equity. Clients often turn to our lawyers in the corporate, real estate, tax, intellectual property, and ERISA practice groups for help with ensuring that their business continues to run smoothly.

Counsel for Equity and Creditors
The firm is trusted by claimants and interests of all kinds, including official committees for unsecured creditors and equity holders, lenders, and private investment companies. Lessors, licensors, and other individuals who hold equity or credit are also reliant on us to protect their rights. Clients receive constant information throughout the bankruptcy process. This allows them to make informed decisions. Our lawyers created the “weekly lending report” that has been widely imitated in an early case. This gave all participants, regardless of size, in the group complete information on the status and development of the case.

The Debtor in Possession of Financing
Our lawyers can represent either debtors or lenders. They are adept at negotiating, documenting, and obtaining approval from the court for financing agreements that are necessary to continue the debtor’s operations in Chapter 11 or to complete a plan of restructuring and exit the Chapter 11 process.
Section 363 Asset Sales
Investment companies and operating businesses are often interested in acquiring the assets of bankrupt companies. The firm advises clients interested in investing in or purchasing distressed or insolvent companies on potential risks and rewards. We guide our clients through the bankruptcy auction and sale process, including due diligence, negotiation, and preparation of transaction documents.
Reorganization Plans
Bruner Wright PA lawyers have vast experience formulating liquidation or restructuring plans, through negotiation, transaction documentation, and, if needed, litigation. Over the years, we have also developed the specialized skills needed to confirm “prepackaged” or fast-tracked plans. They were able to confirm one of the earliest Chapter 11 expedited plans for a public company in 1986.
Litigation Strategies
The restructuring process can be contentious and diverse stakeholders may compete for limited assets or distributions. Clients benefit from the firm’s extensive litigation experience in the United States Bankruptcy Courts. We advise clients on the likelihood of success and risks associated with various litigation strategies, whether they are defending or prosecuting claims.
Cross-Border and Chapter 15 cases
The Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2006 added a chapter (15) to the United States Bankruptcy Code that deals specifically with cross-border cases of insolvency. Chapter 15 incorporates UNCITRAL’s Model Law on Cross-Border Insolvency. It addresses cases involving an insolvent with assets or creditors in multiple nations. Our lawyers represent a variety of parties in interest concerning cross-border or ancillary cases filed under Chapter 15 of the Bankruptcy Code.
