Speaking Engagement
Uncorking the Alternative Vintage: Out-of-Court Workouts and ABCs on Tap | California Bankruptcy Forum 2026 Insolvency Conference
Bankruptcy Partner Keith Patrick Banner will be speaking on the panel, "Uncorking the Alternative Vintage: Out-of-Court Workouts and ABCs on Tap," for California Bankruptcy Forum's 2026 Insolvency Conference, on May 16, 2026.
Session Details:
Before turning to bankruptcy, companies may find a better blend in out-of-court workouts. This panel will compare workouts with formal proceedings and explore when they are especially advantageous—particularly in industries such as cannabis, venture-backed companies, and crypto—before diving into the structure and strategy of Assignments for the Benefit of Creditors (ABCs), including stakeholder perspectives and asset sales mechanics. The discussion will also address director liability, choice-of-law considerations between California and Delaware, and recent statutory developments, equipping attendees to uncork practical solutions outside the courtroom.
