Receivership serves as an essential tool in the financial and legal landscape, particularly in states like California, Arizona, and Nevada. This process allows courts to appoint an independent individual or entity, known as a receiver, to take control of assets in dispute. While receiverships may sound daunting, they can provide a structured framework for resolving disputes and protecting the interests of creditors and stakeholders. In this blog, we will explore the different types of receiverships, focusing on their specific applications and benefits.

When it comes to California contract law, ABC contracts are a well-established tool that can help individuals and entities avoid a formal bankruptcy filing. “ABC” stands for “Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors,” and the term describes a contract in which an economically troubled “Assignor” transfers control of its assets and property to an independent third party. This third party is called the “Assignee,” and they liquidate and wind-up the entity.
