Your customer or debtor just filed Chapter 11 in Texas. Your claim needs a strategy now.

Exhibit A — The Situation
Signs it's time to call a Texas attorney, not just your lender
If any of this describes your situation in Texas:
You're being asked to sit on (or fight) a creditors' committee
Committee membership shapes the plan negotiations — and who gets paid what, and when.
You hold a secured claim or lien on the debtor's assets
Secured creditors have rights to adequate protection that unsecured creditors don't — but only if asserted correctly.
A proposed plan of reorganization looks unfair to your class
Plans can be objected to on valuation, classification, and treatment grounds before confirmation.
Exhibit B — The Process
What we do, step by step
Case & claim review
We review the debtor's filing, schedules, and proposed treatment of your claim to identify exposure and leverage.
Proof of claim & deadlines
We file (or contest) proofs of claim and track every bar date so nothing is missed.
Adequate protection & lien enforcement
For secured creditors, we move to protect collateral value throughout the case.
Committee representation & plan negotiation
We represent your interests in committee proceedings and negotiate plan treatment directly with debtor's counsel.
Objection & confirmation
Where a plan shortchanges your class, we object on valuation, classification, or feasibility grounds before the court.
Exhibit C — Why Newark Law Offices
A veteran-owned firm that handles the whole picture
Because Newark Law Offices represents both debtors and creditors in Chapter 11 matters, we understand how debtor's counsel builds a plan — and where it's vulnerable. Admission to the federal district courts in Colorado, New Mexico, and Arkansas permits representation in bankruptcy proceedings before those federal courts. It is not a license to practice law in those states.

The firm evaluates qualifying matters in Texas and across Texas and Oklahoma based on jurisdiction, conflicts, timing, and fit.
What should I bring to an initial review?
Bring notices, contracts, policies, pleadings, deadlines, and a short timeline. Do not send confidential or time-sensitive information until the firm confirms a secure intake path.
