The Cooney Law Offices has guided companies big and small through Chapter 11
reorganization, helping to present a plan to creditors and chart a course back to
solvency. Or perhaps you are a candidate for a loan workout or out-of-court debt
restructuring. We also regularly defend businesses in adversary proceedings in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court over claims of fraudulent transfers or preference payments.
Many
clients are owners or partners in a small business who are overexposed from personal
guarantees for debts of the business. We help those owners (and other individuals)
protect their assets both inside and outside of bankruptcy proceedings.
As a family firm, we understand the pressures of a small business. We strive to be
accessible and responsive to our clients, and to tackle your legal issues promptly with
energy and attention to detail.
The Cooney Law Offices serves Pittsburgh and
Allegheny County, and surrounding communities of Butler, Westmoreland, Washington and
Beaver counties.
