    Please feel free to call me at my office for a free
    consultation. My number is 877-222-7800. The restructuring
    should not have an effect on your recovery. Even if they
    filed for bankruptcy protection, they should have insurance
    coverage which should cover your claim. Please call me so
    that I can obtain further information concerning the facts of
    your case. Good Luck
