Complex Collections

Now more than ever, the key to litigation is not just to obtain a judgment, but to have the knowledge and ability to follow up with prompt, strategic, and diverse post-judgment collection actions.  Sherman & Howard's complex collections group works with banks and other creditors in pursuing judgment debtors' assets, including both real and personal property, to satisfy judgments entered for our clients.  The team, comprised of attorneys from various practice areas, merges interdisciplinary knowledge and skills to understand the unique issues involved in each collection, and to create individualized collection plans based on differing circumstances.  Using investigations, garnishments, asset examinations, liens, property seizures, and other diversified means, the group has set aside fraudulent transfers, assisted with disputed property and lien priority issues, and pursued debtors through bankruptcy courts.  Further, based on its significant experience in these matters, the team assists clients in understanding the collection process and creating realistic expectations, thereby helping them make better decisions during the process, including, in some situations, the decision to cease collection efforts.  Complex collections require prompt action and knowledge of the process, and our team is able to act quickly, using its experience, to pursue assets in a timely and effective manner.
