About Fred Bopp
Fred Bopp III trained first as a historian earlier than turning to regulation. He earned his B.A. from Dartmouth College in 1984 and completed his J.D. at Vanderbilt University Law School in 1989. Those years shaped a strategy to legal problems that pairs awareness to record and respect for procedure. He has practiced in New England courts for decades and often seems in regional bankruptcy hearings.
Soon following law school Mr. Bopp joined Perkins Thompson, P.A. in 1989. He became a long-status member of the company’s Bankruptcy/Creditor and Debtor Rights and Litigation Practice Groups. That work placed him within the center of contested insolvency matters, contested creditor claims, and adversary proceedings. Over time he handled both corporate and person insolvency things, taking testimony, briefed appeals, and argued motions in the trial courts that oversee bankruptcy instances.
He is admitted to practice in Maine and Massachusetts, and also holds admission in New Hampshire and before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. Those credentials allow him to take cases that range from nearby consumer bankruptcies to multi-party enterprise reorganizations and appellate contests within the First Circuit.
Mr. Bopp is a member of the American Bankruptcy Institute. His memberships and lengthy tenure in insolvency practice groups mirror continuous engagement with the procedural and substantive shifts that have an effect on bankruptcy practice. He has labored on contested creditor-creditor disputes, choice and fraudulent switch litigation, plan affirmation battles, and creditor workouts. His courtroom work consists of contested hearings on comfort from live, cramdown disputes, and the complicated valuation questions that often accompany reorganizations.
Today he maintains a workplace at Bopp & Guecia. He handles matters for creditors, debtors and trustees in insolvency courts across New England and participates in appeals when cases upward push to the First Circuit. He takes fact and expert testimony, drafts substantive briefs and presents oral argument in contested matters. He continues to practice in bankruptcy, creditor and debtor rights and related litigation.
