Creditor Fraud in Florida

 

Creditor Fraud. Debt Collection Law FirmAn example of creditor fraud In Florida: if principals of a company who are trying to avoid paying the debts of the company attempt to transfer funds and or open up another company, Florida law allows creditors to bring a third-party action against the officers and the new entity to attempt to recover their money. Many debtors in Florida believe that simply by transfering money to another person and or opening a new business will put their assets out of reach of creditors in Florida.

With a proper motion brought before a Florida Court, the Judge will grant joinder. This means the officers who transferred money and the new entity will be brought into a Florida lawsuit brought to collect money from the original debtor.

During litigation in Florida, the Plaintiff and Defendant are able to exchange discovery. This is usually accomplished by utilizing any combination of interrogatories, request for production of documents, request for admissions and or taking depositions. In Florida the opposing party has thirty (30) days to respond to discovery requests. In the Florida debt collection process this is a valuable tool to flush out the defendants defenses if any to your Florida collection case. By using a Florida collection lawyer or Florida collection firm, you can make sure that you have all the documents and information you need from the debtor before going to trial.

If you have any further questions regarding the Florida debt collection process or discovery during the Florida debt collection process, feel free to call or email our collection lawyer to answer your questions.
