Bankruptcy & Insolvency

Lawson Forensic provides independent forensic accounting analysis in bankruptcy and insolvency matters, including solvency analysis at key dates, fraudulent transfer claims under the Bankruptcy Code, preference actions, fiduciary duty and breach of duty analysis, and trustee or creditor committee support.

We accept instructions from trustees, creditors' committees, creditors, and debtor defence teams. Our work typically establishes the entity's financial position at relevant dates, supporting fraudulent transfer claims or defences, asset values for transaction challenges, and comparison of claims in preference proceedings.

Solvency analysis for fiduciary duty claims requires establishing the company's financial position at successive dates and identifying when insolvency thresholds were crossed under applicable state and federal law.
