Bankruptcy & Restructuring

The Bankruptcy Code dictates business and personal filing of bankruptcy and restructuring of organizations at the state and federal levels. Because this area of law is highly litigated and is affected by federal and state law, there are courts at the federal level and in each state that hear bankruptcy proceedings on a daily basis. Because bankruptcy and restructuring laws and regulations affect so many people on a personal level and from a business standpoint, the area of law is highly regulated at both state and federal levels. The National Law Review covers bankruptcy filing and appeals, and restructuring of business organizations.

From commercial bankruptcy affecting multinational organizations to a small business filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the National Law Review covers news in the area of bankruptcy and restructuring law. Chapter 7, Chapter 11, Chapter 13, and Chapter 22 bankruptcies are among those most highly publicized at a commercial level. However, there are also many cases dealing with private individuals and families, which are affected by the ever-changing details which come out of bankruptcy court and proceedings. Businesses in the commercial sector, and individual-filers, can find the latest news, legislation, and updates in the area of law on the National Law Review.

In addition to news and information in the field, visitors can learn about foreclosure proceedings, and how bankruptcy or restructuring will affect ownership of a home, land, and personal conveyances. Distressed acquisitions, creditors’ rights post-filing, fraudulent conveyance actions, replevins, workouts, reorganizations, and reclamations, are among the areas covered in The National Law Review. Bondholders, stockholder rights, trustee accounts, insolvency, and international restructuring at the commercial level, are also topics that are covered on the site.

Visitors to the National Law Review will find both national and international news in the area of bankruptcy and restructuring law. Countries such as the United Kingdom and Germany, and regions in the EU, are often associated with multinational organizations which engage in overseas business transactions. Bankruptcy and restructuring litigation and news in the international realm is also a prime area of focus on the National Law Review.
