Debt & Bankruptcy lawyers in New York

These lawyers act for creditors chasing unpaid debts and for individuals and businesses facing insolvency, bankruptcy, or winding up. They advise on debt recovery, statutory demands, county court judgments, individual voluntary arrangements, and restructuring. Because deadlines and consequences can be severe, early advice often preserves options that disappear later.

New York is one of the largest legal markets in the United States, with attorneys admitted to the New York State Bar. Matters are heard in the New York State courts, including the Supreme Court and Appellate Divisions, and in the federal Southern and Eastern Districts of New York.

Frequently asked questions

How do I recover money someone owes me?+

Options range from a formal letter before action to a county court claim or, for companies, a statutory demand. A lawyer can advise the fastest, most cost-effective route based on the amount and the debtor's circumstances.

What happens if I am threatened with bankruptcy?+

You usually have a limited time to respond to a statutory demand or petition, and options such as negotiating or entering an arrangement may still be available. Take advice immediately, because the window to act closes fast.

What is an IVA?+

An individual voluntary arrangement is a formal, legally binding agreement to repay creditors part of what you owe over time, as an alternative to bankruptcy. A lawyer or insolvency practitioner can advise whether it suits your situation.
