SEC Receivership

Experienced SEC Receivership Attorneys in South Florida

If the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) becomes aware of a fraudulent public business, it will immediately shut down or take over the operations of the business. The court appoints a fiduciary (called a receiver) to facilitate the outstanding affairs of the business under receivership. The attorneys at DIMOND KAPLAN & ROTHSTEIN, P.A., are actively involved in SEC receivership and enforcement actions. Contact us for a consultation.

Our South Florida law firm has been appointed as a receiver and served as counsel to court appointed receivers, managing the litigation and all other aspects of enforcement actions. Once appointed, the receiver gathers the assets of the company into the receivership estate. In order to do so, our attorneys use forensic accountants, computer experts and other specialists to determine sources and locations of assets, as well as the business people involved:

• Embezzled funds
  
• Fraudulent banking
  
• Financial mismanagement
  
• Breached fiduciary duties
  
• Fraudulent invoices

The receiver may then use the recovered assets to distribute to creditors with outstanding debt. If funds remain, the receiver may use the funds to run the business under the SEC receivership.

Whether the goal of SEC receivership actions is to distribute assets to creditors and close the business or to enable the company to survive, the attorneys at DIMOND KAPLAN & ROTHSTEIN, P.A., have the experience to assist receivers and businesses through a SEC receivership.
