Benefits:

Enforcing judgments & protecting/piercing the corporate veil have become increasingly difficult in recent years due to changes in the law and economy. As more clients need to collect on debts and judgments, it is increasingly critical for practitioners to be fluent with the cutting-edge techniques and best practices to pierce & protect the corporate veil, locate assets, and enforce judgments against the most elusive debtors. The growing number of bankruptcies, foreclosures, and judgments has dramatically increased the need for attorneys proficient in the science of effective judgment enforcement and asset recovery. At the same time, it is critical for attorneys to understand the best strategies to protect corporate assets against judgments. The Rossdale faculty for this seminar features two authorities in this practice, who will describe judgment recovering remedies, piercing & protecting the corporate veil, navigating complex searches, strategies on enforcing judgments, fraudulent transfers, and communicating with debtors. Registration includes online access to course and reference materials that serve as a helpful guide to the numerous topics and techniques discussed in the program.
