A Lifeline for Our Business During a Complex Creditor Dispute

Our company faced a significant financial threat when a major debtor filed for Chapter 11. We needed counsel who understood both the intricate bankruptcy code and aggressive litigation tactics. Geoffrey Treece was that attorney. His four decades of experience, particularly his deep focus on representing financial institutions, was immediately evident. He navigated the complexities of the Little Rock court with precision, and his strategic approach to our creditor rights was masterful. The recent recognition of his peers speaks volumes. Mr. Treece secured a favorable settlement that protected our interests completely. He is not just a brilliant legal mind; he communicates clearly and made us feel like a priority throughout a stressful process. We cannot recommend him highly enough.
