Foreign Receiverships & Cross-Border Insolvencies

In addition to representing domestic clients, Neligan LLP also has extensive experience representing foreign receivers and liquidators in cross-border insolvency proceedings. Our attorneys have worked on behalf of foreign liquidators and receivers in order to obtain the benefit of Chapter 15 relief in the United States, secure and protect assets located here, and assert litigation claims. We have also represented U.S. bankruptcy trustees and receivers involved in cross-border insolvency proceedings involving parallel proceedings in multiple countries.

Our attorneys have the experience to understand the key legal issues and potential hurdles involved in foreign receiverships, liquidations and cross-border insolvencies, and have built strong relationships with international lawyers, accountants and other professionals, in order to better serve our clients. We understand the complexities that may arise when funds travel across borders, and we have the experience and expertise to pursue the most prudent legal action in order to maximize recovery for liquidators, receivers and bankruptcy trustees involved in cross-border cases. Our lawyers have handled all varieties of cross-border insolvency litigation, and coordinated litigation efforts with foreign counsel in order to maximize recoveries for the estate and its creditors.
