Bankruptcy is rarely simple, and when disputes arise within the process, the stakes can be enormous. Whether you are a creditor fighting to recover what you're owed, a business navigating a complex reorganization, or a party facing fraudulent claims in bankruptcy court, you need a litigation team that knows how to fight and win in this highly specialized arena. Bearden Trial Lawyers brings the same aggressive, fact-driven approach that defines everything we do to the unique and complex world of bankruptcy litigation. We don't just know the law — we know how to use it.

We handle bankruptcy litigation matters involving:

​

Creditor Representation

When a debtor files for bankruptcy, your right to recovery doesn't disappear. We represent creditors in asserting claims, challenging discharges, and ensuring that every available avenue of recovery is pursued on your behalf.

​

Fraudulent Transfer Claims

When assets are moved or concealed in anticipation of bankruptcy to keep them out of creditors' reach, that is fraud — and it is actionable. We investigate suspicious transfers, trace assets, and pursue recovery aggressively.

​

Preference Actions

Payments made to certain creditors in the period leading up to a bankruptcy filing can be challenged and clawed back. We represent both defendants fighting preference claims and trustees pursuing them.

​

Discharge Litigation

Not every debt is entitled to discharge in bankruptcy. We challenge improper discharge requests and represent clients seeking to hold debtors accountable for debts arising from fraud, misconduct, or willful harm.

​

Business Reorganization Disputes

When disagreements arise during a Chapter 11 reorganization — over the plan itself, asset valuations, or the treatment of creditors — we provide the litigation firepower needed to protect our clients' interests in court.

​

Bankruptcy Fraud

When a debtor conceals assets, files false schedules, or abuses the bankruptcy process, we work to expose the fraud and pursue every remedy available under the law.

Financial disputes in bankruptcy court demand a team that is prepared to litigate at the highest level. Bearden Trial Lawyers brings the experience, tenacity, and courtroom credibility to protect your interests and fight for the outcome you deserve.
