State Court Insolvency Proceedings

Maximizing success in state court proceedings

State court remedies often provide a more efficient alternative to bankruptcy. Assignments for the Benefits of Creditors (ABCs) or state court receiverships are often the best alternative to maximize recovery and monetize assets resulting in greater recoveries for creditors.

Additionally, as a court appointed Receiver, S.

We advise creditors on their legal rights and remedies to repossess assets, attach goods pre-judgment, and petition the Court for insolvent debtor corporations to be placed into statutory receivership in order to secure and preserve assets.  We have completed numerous receivership appointments, many for highly complex situations.
