Description
When companies file Chapter 11, they communicate on a number of fronts and through a number of means. Pleadings are fashioned to convey a particular message to the court, creditors and anybody else who might read them. Public companies have certain mandatory disclosures in the form of 8Ks. More importantly, and more interestingly, communications strategies are undertaken by debtors to inform but reassure their customers, vendors and the public. This program will be led by experts in the field of communications in the face of a bankruptcy. Issues include securities law compliance prepetition, avoiding improper plan solicitation, the role of communications professionals in messaging even in filed documents and in case proceedings, such as the first day declaration and at the 341 meeting and, post-petition when court approval is necessary or advisable.
