Beyond the Judgment – The Next Legal Step
Innovative attorneys recognize that securing judgments marks the beginning, not the end, of custodial battles over insolvent capital flows. While winning at trial provides legal entitlements, challenges such as debtor exemptions, enforcement ambiguities, and oversight limitations demand further affirmative actions known as proceedings supplementary to translate courtroom victories into tangible creditor recoveries.
Success Beyond the Verdict
A specialty contractor recently won a $425,000 breach of contract dispute against a real estate developer. However, converting recognized damages into capital faced obstacles due to the defendant’s concealment of assets and jurisdictional financial barriers. By petitioning the court for expanded collection oversight through proceedings supplementary, the contractor’s counsel uncovered hidden LLC distributions totaling millions annually, despite claims of insolvency. This newfound authority allowed attorneys to intercept disbursements directly at their source, redirecting resources towards satisfying the judgment despite sophisticated corporate structuring.
