Kugler Wechsler helps secured and unsecured creditors protect their rights, enforce remedies and maximize recovery in insolvency and restructuring matters.
Protecting Your Position When a Debtor Is in Default
When a debtor is insolvent or in default, delays and the wrong strategy can affect recovery. Whether you are a secured lender, trade creditor, supplier, landlord, leasing company or lienholder, we help you understand your rights and act strategically.
A Recovery Strategy Built for the Circumstances
Kugler Wechsler is regularly called upon by banks, financial institutions, property owners, leasing companies, suppliers and trade creditors to protect and enforce their rights. We assess security, priorities, remedies and risks, then help you implement the most effective strategy through negotiation or before the courts.
