Complex Collection, Fraud and Asset Recovery Litigation
The collections practice at Gannett & Associates seldom involves credit cards, car loans or even mortgage foreclosure. Instead, we concentrate on complex creditors’ rights issues arising out of international sales, fraud, successor liability or difficult asset location and recovery problems. We identify concealed or transferred assets and pursue legal action against the debtors, transferees, shell corporations and bankruptcy estates that hold those assets.
If you need help with a difficult debt collection or asset recovery problem in Massachusetts or Illinois, discuss your case with an attorney who has more than 25 years of complex litigation experience. Contact the Boston law firm of Gannett & Associates for a free consultation.

Our skill at tracing assets through a maze of transfers and false documentation can protect the value of your unliquidated claim or your default judgment.
