Benefits View Benefits

The weak economy continues to push numerous businesses into distress, prompting record numbers of commercial loan defaults. Bankruptcy filings have increasingly become a method for sale over reorganization. Acquisitions of distressed businesses have reached record volumes as buyers take advantage of low price opportunities. To maximize the recovery of distressed loans, lenders and their counsel must evaluate loans at the first sign of financial difficulty and develop pre-bankruptcy proceeding strategies to protect the lenders' rights and interests. While bankruptcy is most often the preferred choice for secured creditors, a foreclosure under UCC Article 9 poses unique advantages for both parties. Foreclosure under Article 9 can be completed more quickly, cost less, and be more predictable than a Section 363 sale. At the same time, the UCC foreclosure process involves some unexpected obstacles that creditors must avoid and be addressed. This seminar covers the general best practices that should be considered in any UCC foreclosure and bankruptcy sale, associated risks, methods to minimize uncertainty, best practices for carrying out UCC sales, and avoiding the unexpected difficulties that arise with such sales. Learn from our experienced and respected faculty as they provide advice on counseling lenders and creditors, as well as those whose practice entails aspects of bankruptcy law and foreclosures.
