Fraudulent Transfers

Recovering or unwinding transfers a debtor made to avoid paying a judgment.

Overview

Most states have adopted the Uniform Voidable Transactions Act (UVTA), or a predecessor (UFTA).

Transfers made with actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud creditors — or constructively fraudulent transfers for less than reasonably equivalent value — can be unwound.

Timing rules and statutes of limitation are tight; investigation must be quick.

Key Concepts

  • Badges of fraud
  • Reasonably equivalent value
  • Insider transfers
  • Statutes of limitation for voidable transactions

Examples

Insider transfer

Debtor deeds personal residence to a spouse for $1 thirty days before judgment entry. The transfer is a classic candidate for unwind.

Common Mistakes

  • Waiting too long to investigate suspect transfers.
  • Pursuing the transferee without including a related claim against the debtor.
