His clients seek him out to avoid filing bankruptcy, and to assist in formulating a plan to restructure individual and corporate debt outside of bankruptcy. He reviews his client’s financial information, analyzes the bankruptcy implications for both the lender and the debtor, and then approaches the lender with a proposal to restructure or settle the indebtedness. Mr. Niarhos has been very successful over the years with his approach to restructuring his clients’ debts.
Debtor Representation
Mr. Niarhos’ primary goal for his debtor clients is to avoid bankruptcy, if at all possible. This goal sets him apart from the majority of bankruptcy attorneys who focus their practice only on consumer bankruptcy cases. He approaches each client by analyzing their assets, liabilities and exposure in each case. In the event a client is required to file bankruptcy, Mr. Niarhos conducts a rigorous due diligence process in order to determine the best way to approach the bankruptcy filing. He represents corporations and individuals in both chapter 7 and chapter 11 bankruptcy cases. In 2013, Mr. Niarhos was co-counsel in one of the largest individual chapter 11 bankruptcy cases in the country, with over 60 million dollars of debt. He also has experience handling bankruptcy entertainment issues, and has been on panels for continuing legal education programs regarding these issues.
