As businesses emerge from the pandemic and interest rates rise, some obligations become impossible to meet. Business lawyers must be familiar with how to negotiate a workout of these obligations and, if necessary, effectuate a restructuring of a business, formally or informally. From the immediate issues to tackle for a newly financially distressed client, through how to survive in Bankruptcy Court and confirm a plan and the deadlines to expect, including dealing with the special issues in a landlord/tenant relationship, knowing how to effectuate a workout or restructuring is essential. This program gives business lawyers an understanding of the process and key points of negotiation inside and outside bankruptcy.
