Our team of multicultural and multilingual attorneys have extensive experience coordinating with foreign counsel in foreign proceedings even before a foreign judgment or arbitral award is rendered. By doing that, we maximize the chances of that judgment or award meeting all U.S. requirements for enforcement and collection. As a result, our attorneys have an impressive success record in enforcing and collecting international judgments and arbitral awards.
Compared with enforcement of domestic awards, domesticating an international judgment or arbitral award can be relatively complex because additional factors come into play. Our lawyers have extensive experience with the special procedural considerations that should be taken into account from the outset, as well as the international treaties that may apply depending on the issuing country. We know what to expect in an enforcement proceeding and the issues that frequently arise when enforcing an international judgment or award.
On the collection side, we have substantial experience in post-judgment evidence gathering and recovery methods including garnishments, freeze orders, sequestration orders, and execution writs. Additionally, where accountants, attorneys and other asset protection specialists have participated in a debtor’s asset concealment scheme, we pursue actions against those facilitators, including actions for conspiracy and aiding-and-abetting.
