Litigation, Arbitration, Mediation
Loeb & Loeb’s Bankruptcy, Restructuring and Creditors’ Rights Practice represents our clients’ interests in all aspects of federal and state bankruptcy, insolvency and creditors’ rights law. Our clients include creditors, debtors, committees and trustees as well as the buyers and sellers of distressed assets across a host of industries, including real estate, financial services, media and entertainment, energy, airline, healthcare and telecommunications. Our practice combines both transactional attorneys and litigators who offer a depth of experience and a multidisciplinary approach to crafting practical solutions for our clients that are facing financially distressed situations.
We regularly counsel our clients with respect to:
Creditors’ rights, bankruptcy and insolvency-related litigation, including pursuing and defending collection and recovery motions, defending preference and fraudulent transfer lawsuits, and establishing and enforcing receiverships
We have represented troubled companies, boards and special board committees, secured and unsecured creditors, creditors’ and equity committees, equity and debt holders, bankruptcy trustees and examiners, receivers, business and asset acquirers, lessors and lessees, agents for lending groups, and indenture trustees in complex debtors’ and creditors’ rights matters.
Our services include pre-bankruptcy planning and advice regarding bankruptcy alternatives; insolvency planning and loan workouts, including advice regarding lender liability; mortgage company insolvencies; commercial mortgage foreclosures; enforcement of notes and guarantees and realization of collateral; and litigation at both the trial and appellate level in bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy forums. We are frequently called upon to counsel both borrowers and lenders in restructuring complex credit relationships, from inception through final resolution.
Our clients benefit by receiving consistent counsel from one integrated team as they proceed through a complex bankruptcy, restructuring or creditors’ rights matter. Working as a team, we can anticipate each aspect of a case from beginning to end, achieving better results and more efficient representation for our clients.
We also collaborate on restructuring and bankruptcy-related matters with other Loeb & Loeb attorneys who practice in such areas as tax, banking, corporate, litigation, entertainment, real estate, capital markets, and mergers and acquisitions to provide comprehensive service and counsel to our clients.

At Loeb & Loeb, our commitment to fostering and maintaining a diverse workforce is as important as our commitment to every client, case and transaction. Our inclusive environment and consideration of varied perspectives are essential to creating the best solutions for our clients, and integral elements of our success. It’s just another way: Loeb& Loeb adds Value.
Driving our diversity initiatives are the attorneys and staff who serve on our Workplace Diversity and Inclusion Committee. The mission of the Workplace Diversity and Inclusion Committee is to advance diversity awareness within the firm, establish firm-wide policies and initiatives that support our commitment to maintaining a diverse workforce; foster understanding, communication and respect; and promote an inclusive workplace environment that utilizes the talents of attorneys and staff of all race, color, national origin, ethnic and cultural background, religion, sex, age, medical condition or disability, citizenship, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation or preference and marital, veteran or family status. At Loeb & Loeb we believe drawing on the talents of a diverse pool of attorneys and staff creates a workplace environment that allows us to attract and retain a diverse workforce and to serve our clients more effectively and creatively as a result.
Recruiting and Retention
The Workplace Diversity and Inclusion Committee assists and monitors Loeb & Loeb’s ongoing efforts to promote and achieve its diversity goals, especially the goal of meaningfully increasing the representation and retention of women and minority lawyers at all levels of the firm. The committee advises firm management regarding procedures for enhancing the recruitment, retention and promotion of diverse attorneys, and provides input on ways to integrate diversity goals into everyday decision-making, policies and management practices.
Affinity Groups
Loeb & Loeb attorneys and staff members are active in four affinity groups: Attorneys of Color, LGBT, Women and Parents. These groups provide a voluntary support network designed to create a more inclusive culture, enrich the work environment, and identify solutions and strategies that help the firm recruit, develop, advance and retain talented attorneys. Through thoughtful discussion of topical issues and identification of best practices, our affinity group members are able to drive meaningful change and promote a culture of collaboration and positive action.
Mentoring
Encouraging the professional growth and development of our attorneys is an important focus at Loeb & Loeb. It is key to the success of our attorneys, our firm and our service to clients. Our mentor program provides associates with the structure and framework needed to build skill sets and develop valuable professional connections. Through both informal and formal mentoring, senior lawyers share their experience, knowledge and insight to help guide associates on the path to become future firm leaders.
Community Outreach
Our commitment to diversity is enhanced by our active involvement as members and sponsors of several organizations that support and reflect our diverse society, such as the California Minority Counsel Program and Lambda Legal. We also participate in programs that promote diversity in the legal profession, including the recently expanded Judicial Intern Opportunity Program from which the ABA Section of Litigation places law students of color and those from disadvantaged backgrounds into judicial internships.
In addition, we are a signatory of the Diversity Statement and Policies promulgated by the New York City and Los Angeles County Bar Associations. Both of these initiatives call upon law firms to hire diverse incoming classes and to maintain this diversity as associates rise in seniority and are considered for partnership.
DIVERSITY ADDS VALUE!
