- Chapter 11 Business Reorganizations: Representing creditors' committees, landlords, vendors, and asset buyers in complex reorganizations and Section 363 asset sales.

- Adversary Proceedings: Filing non-dischargeability lawsuits against dishonest debtors who obtained credit through fraud, misrepresentation, or embezzlement.
- Relief from Automatic Stay: Drafting motions to lift bankruptcy stays, allowing lenders to repossess collateral or proceed with foreclosure.
