Creditor's Rights

The Los Angeles lawyers of Cotkin & Collins, P.C. are specialists in creditor right law, bankruptcy and insolvency issues. Representing major creditors and their rights, our firm has wide-ranging experience in major bankruptcy cases at all levels.

Our firm can help creditors recover losses. While the filing of a bankruptcy petition creates an automatic stay in action on the creditor's part, and the continuation of action by the creditor may be grounds for a contempt proceeding before the Bankruptcy Court & Cotkin can still ensure that creditor's interests are legally maintained throughout the proceedings.

When adversary litigation is required, our firm realizes that such proceedings are subject to a good number of the same procedural rules pertinent to civil litigation in the federal courts. However, certain rules are not included in bankruptcy proceedings, and some rules are modified for such cases. It is our experience in these murky legal waters, that can help you to retain your creditor rights.

Cotkin & Collins understands the complexities of a bankruptcy or insolvency application and, as a representative for the creditors, work to ensure that the creditor rights are enforced.

Founded over 25 years ago, our firm has actively pursued and has been victorious in a diverse array of practice areas, including enforcing creditor rights in insolvency litigation. Our seasoned attorneys have extensive experience in Federal and State courts, administrative proceedings, as well as dealing directly with governmental agencies.

In addition, where the debtor incurred credit by fraud, our firm can successfully represent the creditor in actions against the fraudulent debtor. The creditor can act against the debtor by contesting the discharge of debt, if such a discharge has been granted, or has been applied for by the debtor. We can represent the creditor in wide range of actions to ensure that their right to collection is enforceable.

Even if a creditor holds a pre-insolvency ruling for fraud against the debtor, where the judgment may be irrefutable in the bankruptcy court, the creditor still needs to file the non dischargeability action. Cotkin & Collins is qualified to represent the creditor in such an action, and will take the steps necessary to ensure that the creditor receives an equitable judgment.

If you are a creditor seeking out legal representation in a dispute with a creditor, or merely want to ensure your rights as a creditor are represented in legal proceedings, the law firm of Cotkin & Collins are the Los Angeles lawyers you need to contact.
