Corporate bankruptcies in the US have surged to levels unseen since the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2008 global financial crisis. Lowenstein partners Bruce S. Nathan and Andrew Behlmann will discuss the resurgence in Chapter 11 filings in 2023, those industries most affected by this surge, the causes of the surge, the trend towards speedier Chapter 11 cases, including:

  • More prepackaged, prearranged, and sale cases
  • The increased frequency and causes of “Chapter 22” repeat bankruptcies
  • The more creditor friendly formation process for unsecured creditors’ committees
  • The critical role of creditors’ committees enhancing creditor recoveries
  • The explosion in Subchapter V small business filings
  • The precipitous – but temporary – drop in preference litigation
