Experienced & Trusted.

Driver Stephenson’s hallmark is creating innovative solutions to our business clients’ complex issues in an efficient and dynamic way. We serve clients across Texas and nationwide in healthcare, real estate, hospitality, retail and more utilizing bankruptcy, out of court restructuring, appeals, bankruptcy-related litigation, and receiverships for over 40 years in practice. Driver Stephenson is adept at staying client-focused, moving creatively, and delivering successful outcomes for both creditor and debtor clients.

Full-Spectrum Financial Restructuring & Dispute Resolution

Driver Stephenson provides a full spectrum of restructuring and bankruptcy-avoidance services designed to minimize adverse impact to business and personal wealth. Whether you’re exploring the cost-effective, streamlined relief of a Subchapter V filing or negotiating a bespoke out-of-court workout—extending maturities, lowering rates, or structuring debt-for-equity swaps—we’ll craft a plan that meets your unique needs. For high-net-worth individuals facing complex exemption and marital-property issues, we offer discreet, compassionate guidance that protects assets and preserves family unity. If you need to unwind a business before a Chapter 7 filing, our creditor-negotiation strategies can secure concessions in exchange for discounted payments, speeding the dissolution process and avoiding costly contested hearings.

When disputes arise, Driver Stephenson stands ready with seasoned litigation and appellate advocacy. From defending preference and fraudulent-transfer claims (including defending breach-of-fiduciary actions brought against directors and officers) to briefing complex issues before the Fifth Circuit, we deliver trial-tested strategies and precision advocacy. Our transactional team also helps clients negotiate leases, loans, acquisitions, divestitures, and even “business divorces,” structuring every agreement to minimize future litigation. When traditional bankruptcy isn’t the answer, our receivership practice offers state-court solutions to preserve and maximize claimant recoveries. With over 40 years of nationwide experience across real estate, healthcare, hospitality, franchise, and retail, Driver Stephenson is your partner in every phase of financial challenge and opportunity.
