Creditors’ Rights in New York

Understanding Creditors’ Legal Rights in NY State

At Hacker Murphy LLP, we understand how to cost effectively collect commercial debts and enforce judgments. We partner with asset search investigation firms to locate a debtor’s assets. We employ legal tools such as subpoenas and executions to further locate, seize and sell a debtor’s non-exempt assets to satisfy our client’s debt. If a debtor tries to shield themselves by filing bankruptcy, we can appear in bankruptcy court to ensure the debt survives. Often times we are able to leverage our aggressive collection efforts to negotiate a early favorable settlement.

Why You Will Need an Experienced Creditors’ Rights Lawyer
