ENFORCEMENT AND COLLATERAL RECOVERY
Our clients’ goals often go beyond the acquisition of a judgment. While the Firm’s attorneys are well-versed in garnishment, levy and other routine collection mechanisms, sizable judgments or those involving unique sources of collateral can require the use of more complex and non-standard means of enforcement.
From unwinding fraudulent transfers to locating hidden collateral, attorneys at LGP regularly handle complex enforcement actions with an end goal of maximizing our clients’ recovery. Whether our client’s objective is to prevent the pre-judgment depletion of business assets or to recover assets upon entry of judgment, LGP attorneys are prepared to pursue all available remedies.
Services provided to our clients interested in pre-judgment remedies include:
- Appointment of Receivers
- Pre-judgment writs of replevin
- Pre-judgment writs of garnishment and attachment
- Preliminary injunctions
- Sequestration of assets
- Assistance in pursuing self-help remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code
- Identification and location of collateral
- Collaboration with state and federal law enforcement to locate and secure collateral removed from the relevant jurisdiction
Our Firm’s representation of our clients’ interest does not end when a final judgment is obtained. LGP attorneys regularly pursue a variety of post-judgment collection strategies such as:
- Domestication of Foreign Judgments for Enforcement Purposes
- Discovery in Aid of Execution
- Recovery and Sale of Personal Property
- Commercial and Residential Foreclosure Sales
- Identification and recovery of assets transferred to alter ego entities, including the prosecution of claims under successor entity theories of liability
- Deficiency Judgments
- Wage and Account Garnishment
- Lien enforcement
- Seizure of assets
