State Court Remedies

Assignment for Benefit of Creditors (ABC)

Through an Assignment for Benefit of Creditors (ABC), the debtor assigns all of its assets to an independent third party who will liquidate the assets for the benefit of the debtor’s creditors. What makes the ABC special is that it is expeditious and inexpensive for the involved parties. Fortunately, our legal team has expertise in acting as the assignee as well as representing assignees, debtors, and creditors.

Receivership

Michigan law also allows for a Receiver to be appointed to administer the assets of an individual or a business. For example, a judgment creditor may request the court to appoint a Receiver to sell or preserve the assets of a debtor that has not paid a judgment. Let our experienced team be your partner in helping your company.

Workout

This type of resolution can be used by involved parties to negotiate an agreement with their creditors. Our attorneys can help you settle debt while avoiding bankruptcy and saving most of your properties.
