Practice overview

Protect Cash Flow and Enforce Payment, Fast

Galli Law, PLLC represents creditors with one goal: convert receivables into results. If you build projects, supply materials, extend credit, or hold secured interests, you need enforcement options that match the reality of deadlines, leverage, and risk.

We help real estate developers, construction firms, and contractors pursue mechanics liens, foreclosures, bankruptcy claims, and debt collection across New York. Our approach is direct, business-focused, and built to move matters forward.

Where we bring value

Creditor matters are won by acting early and using the right tools. We evaluate the claim, secure your position, and apply pressure through statutory remedies and litigation that aligns with your business objectives.

  • Leverage-First Strategy

    We identify the fastest path to recovery, whether that is lien rights, security enforcement, litigation, or negotiated resolution.

  • Deadline and Compliance Control

    Creditor remedies are deadline-driven. We manage filings, notices, and procedural steps so you preserve rights and avoid avoidable defects.

  • Litigation That Drives Payment

    We pursue judgments, provisional remedies when appropriate, and targeted motion practice that creates settlement pressure.

  • Business-Minded Resolution

    When a payment plan or workout makes sense, we structure enforceable terms and security to reduce risk and prevent repeat defaults.

Core creditors’ rights matters

Mechanics liens for contractors, subs, and suppliers

Liens can be the difference between getting paid and writing off a project. We handle lien strategy, filing and enforcement, discharge challenges, and settlement negotiations, including coordination with project stakeholders and counsel.

We also advise on contract and documentation practices that strengthen lien rights and reduce collection friction.

Foreclosures and enforcement of secured interests

When a borrower defaults, delay can destroy value. We represent lenders and other secured creditors in foreclosure actions, workouts, and enforcement efforts aimed at protecting collateral and recovering losses efficiently.

We assess priority, title issues, and the practical path forward, including negotiated resolutions where appropriate.

Creditor representation in bankruptcy

Bankruptcy changes the rules, but it does not eliminate your rights. We represent creditors in bankruptcy-related matters, including claims strategy, objections when warranted, and efforts to protect secured interests and improve recovery.

We focus on outcomes that preserve leverage and reduce the risk of creditor funds being diluted or delayed.

Debt collection and judgment enforcement

We pursue debt collection for creditors across industries, from demand and negotiation through suit, judgment, and post-judgment enforcement. When litigation is necessary, we litigate with a clear objective: recovery with cost and timeline discipline.

If you already have a judgment, we help identify enforcement options and pursue collection efforts designed to convert the judgment into payment.

If you are carrying unpaid balances, dealing with a default, or facing a bankruptcy filing, the next step matters. Tell us what you are owed and we will build a recovery plan.
