 Florida Creditors Fraud Attorney and Law Firm

 
Do not give up on your Florida collection matters just because a Florida Corporation or a Florida Limited Liability Company appears to be out of business. Our Florida Collection firm is experienced in pursuing creditors rights matters where an insider of a company has participated in committing fraud on a company or business that extended credit.  We recognize that there are times when a Florida Company goes out of business for legitimate business reasons. However, do not always assume a debtor has honest motives.

 Experienced Florida Creditors Rights Attorney

Our  Florida  creditors fraud attorney has over twenty years  of pursuing debtors who have fraudulently induced creditors to extend credit. Florida has adopted the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, UFTA.  The Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act is a powerful tool to pierce corporate veil and implicate officers, directors  and / or members of  Florida Limited Liability Companies and Florida Corporations.

 
Many Florida Corporations Shut Down and Reopen Under a New Name

 In these tough economic times many creditors are finding Florida  Limited Liability Companies and Florida Corporations shutting down and leaving our creditor clients holding the bag for goods sold and delivered or services rendered. Our  law firms Florida collection attorneys understand the Florida Law in the area of creditors fraud and officer and director liability.  With our collection clients help, we look at the history of the credit transaction and then start to put the pieces of the puzzle together. Under Florida law our collection attorneys can look to impute successor liability on a Florida business entity that has common officers, common customers and most times the clients goods that were delivered but, not paid for.  In Florida there are other ways of imputing individual liability on an officer or member of a Florida entity is that the corporate charter has expired and thus, is deemed to be administratively dissolved by the State of Florida.

 Where There is a Wrong There is a Remedy

 Our Florida collection law firm believes that when there is a wrong there is a remedy at law. Speak to our Florida creditors fraud attorney.

Below is some of the text from the UFTA:

 Under UFTA, a transfer made or obligation incurred by a debtor is fraudulent if done:

a. With actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor of the debtor; or

b. Without receiving a reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the transfer or obligation, and the debtor:

(1) Was engaged or was about to engage in a business or a transaction for which the remaining assets of the debtor were unreasonably small in relation to the business or transaction; or

(2) Intended to incur, or believed or reasonably should have believed that the debtor would incur debts beyond the debtor's ability to pay as they become due.

Those standards apply regardless of whether the creditors claim arose before or after the transfer were made or the obligation was incurred.

In determining actual intent, consideration may be given, among other factors, to whether:

* The transfer or obligation was to an insider;

* The debtor retained possession or control of the property transferred after the transfer;

* The transfer or obligation was disclosed or concealed;

* Before the transfer was made or obligation was incurred, the debtor had been sued or threatened with suit;

* The transfer was of substantially all the debtor's assets;

* The debtor absconded;

* The debtor removed or concealed assets;

* The value of the consideration received by the debtor was reasonably equivalent to the value of the asset transferred or the amount of the obligation incurred;

* The debtor was insolvent or became insolvent shortly after the transfer was made or the obligation was incurred;

* The transfer occurred shortly before or shortly after a substantial debt was incurred; and

* The debtor transferred the essential assets of the business to a lienor who transferred the assets to an insider of the debtor.

The remedies available to a successful claimant under UFTA are broad. Obviously, avoidance of the transfer is primary.

Other remedies include attachment against the asset transferred or other property of the transferee; a money judgment against the transferee where the transfer cannot be undone; and injunctive relief. The statute also contains a catch-all provision, affording a creditor "any other relief the circumstances may require."
