Review Executive Reports: Effectively Navigating Corporate Restructuring Litigation--The Over-Arching Issues You Need to Know (Executive Reports) / Aspatore Books:This 20-page research report written for attorneys and clients involved in bankruptcy litigation proceedings features critical points to keep in mind when constructing a winning strategy. This report covers the complete process of defending the client—from the initial step of gathering and analyzing the facts to fighting for the client in litigation, if that is the client’s best option for resolution.

Leading attorneys give valuable insight into assessing and then guiding the client through all options available to them, whether it’s settlement, arbitration, mediation or litigation. This report shows how an attorney can efficiently and cost-effectively navigate a client through a restructuring case with thorough preparation and open communication. Other topics include preferential transfers, fraudulent conveyances, signs that make a case seem frivolous or signs that the case may not end favorably, international commerce, forum selection and choice of law provisions clauses, lender liability, piercing the corporate veil, deepening insolvency, collective bargaining agreements, trustee litigation, the United States Bankruptcy Code, and timing of a restructuring.
