Receiverships, Lenders & Special Creditor Remedies

Federal Equity Receiverships

Allen Matkins attorneys have extensive experience in representing court-appointed receivers in enforcement actions across the country brought by federal agencies, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Trade Commission, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and other investigatory and enforcement agencies. Typically, these enforcement actions allege a fraud, including securities fraud, or other deceptive or wrongful business practices.

We assist receiver clients in every aspect of investigating alleged misconduct, marshaling assets of the entities used to perpetrate the alleged fraud, and obtaining recoveries for victimized investors and consumers. Allen Matkins has also applied its receivership expertise in representing clients pursuing claims in, or acquiring assets from, receivership estates.
