- Corruption & Proceeds of Crime Recovery | Sequor Law
Recovering ill-gotten gains through international asset freezes, whistleblower cooperation, and coordinated enforcement. ICC and IBA leadership. Corruption & Proceeds of Crime Recovery Sequor Law is on the front lines of the fight to deprive corrupt actors of their ill-gotten gains. Our leadership in anti-corruption work extends from the International Chamber of Commerce’s FraudNet to the International Bar Association. A Global Practice Spanning Civil, Criminal, and Regulatory Dimensions In matters involving overlapping civil, criminal, and regulatory issues, Sequor Law prosecutes cases across the full litigation cycle, from working with whistleblowers to coordinating sensitive investigations involving politically exposed persons and former public officials. The firm is a global thought leader in obtaining comity-based recognition and enforcement of foreign freeze orders and other injunctions, while prosecuting cases in U.S. courts and supervising related matters pending abroad. Sequor Law represents sovereigns and state-owned enterprises in pursuing individuals and businesses that profited from corrupt conduct, including bid-rigging and other cartel behavior. Our anti-corruption team focuses on disrupting the wrongdoer’s inner circle through asset freeze orders, pre-judgment remedies, strategic evidence-gathering, insolvency tools, and direct claims against wrongdoers and third-party facilitators. The firm also advises on corruption-related MLAT requests and restitution arrangements. Sequor Law has helped shape the law through the use of pre-suit tools such as 28 U.S.C. § 1782 and through the strategic deployment of insolvency procedures as a powerful recovery mechanism in corruption matters. From Asset Freezes to MLAT Requests: A Full Enforcement Arsenal Shaping International Anti-Corruption Policy — and the Mission Behind It Sequor Law’s professionals regularly present at leading anti-corruption forums, including Transparency International and the OECD. The firm has collaborated with the World Bank and the Basel Institute on anti-corruption research and best-practice guides and has co-chaired the annual FIU College of Law Anti-Corruption Conference. Sequor Law remains committed to this work because corruption undermines the rule of law, fosters impunity, and deprives citizens, including vulnerable populations, of essential services and basic human rights. Representative Representative Cases Representation of the Government of Trinidad and Tobago in Bid-Rigging and Corruption Case Sequor Law represents the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago in related fraud and corruption proceedings in Florida, Liechtenstein, The Bahamas, Panama, and Switzerland.

Corruption-Related Asset Recovery on Behalf of Antigua and Barbuda Sequor Law represented the Government of Antigua and Barbuda in a corruption matter spanning Florida, Bermuda, Hong Kong, Switzerland, the Isle of Man, and Cayman. The civil case resulted in the freezing, recovery, and repatriation of stolen assets, the repatriation of US$12 million to the client, and the cancellation of a fraudulent contract that saved the government more than US$20 million in future expenditures. Kleptocracy Case for the Republic of Haiti Sequor Law participated as part of a global team in advising the Republic of Haiti on aspects of Asset Recovery against the Duvalier regime.

- Creditors' Rights | Sequor Law
Enforcing creditor, lender, and judgment holder rights to payment domestically and internationally through litigation, liens, and enforcement Creditors' Rights Sequor Law regularly represents secured and unsecured creditors, from traditional and non-traditional lenders to Judgment holders, in enforcing their rights to payment in the United States and around the world. A Practice Built on the Full Breadth of Secured Collateral Enforcement Sequor Law handles every phase of debt enforcement. Working closely with in-house investigators, Sequor Law identifies assets, uncovers financial misconduct, and builds comprehensive enforcement strategies. The team leads pre-litigation strategies, including workouts, forbearances, and standstill agreements, and it regularly secures urgent pre-judgment remedies such as replevin, garnishment, attachment, injunctive relief, and freeze orders. Sequor Law enforces rights against both real and personal property. On the real estate side, the firm has prosecuted foreclosures involving apartment complexes, unfinished condominium towers, office buildings, gas stations, car washes, warehouse facilities, and retail properties. On the personal property side, the firm has enforced creditor rights against aircraft, helicopters, automotive fleets, floor-plan inventory, heavy machinery, accounts receivable, general intangibles, stock and membership interests, commercial tort claims, and intellectual property. Sequor Law also enforces Judgments, whether domesticated in the United States or obtained abroad. The firm’s work includes perfecting Judgment liens, identifying and collecting assets, overseeing levies and executions, and pursuing post-Judgment garnishments and attachments. Sequor Law is deeply experienced in litigating fraudulent transfer, successor liability, alter ego, and veil-piercing claims. In cross-border debt matters, Sequor Law frequently leads multi-jurisdictional enforcement efforts, coordinating strategy across common law and civil law jurisdictions to achieve effective and efficient recoveries. Advanced Recovery Strategies for Domestic & International Judgments Representative Representative Cases Representation of Peru in Kleptocracy Case Against Former Head of State Sequor Law represented the Government of Peru in litigation in Miami, Florida, where the plaintiff sought to attach the aircraft in which the President of Peru would travel to the United States. While asserting defenses under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, including insufficient service of process, lack of personal jurisdiction, and failure to state a claim, the firm also argued that Peru was immune from attachment and suit. The court held that the aircraft was “military hardware” and therefore not subject to attachment. Representation of Instrumentality of the French Government in Asset Recovery Matter Sequor Law represented Créances, S.A.S. (“CDR”), successor to Société de Banque Occidentale (“SDBO”) and an instrumentality of the Republic of France, in a matter involving a nearly US$100 million fraudulent loan transaction that led to the sale of the collateral land without repayment. Sequor Law helped develop the strategy that ultimately led to the recovery of millions of dollars in real estate. Open Gregory S.

- Asset Recovery | Global Tracing & Enforcement | Sequor Law
Led by our founding partner, recognized by Chambers & Partners (Band 1, Asset Tracing & Recovery, Global-Wide). ICC FraudNet member. Pursuing and recovering assets worldwide Asset Recovery Sequor Law is recognized worldwide for its leadership in the practice area. We not only recover assets for victims of fraud and corruption, but also seek to hold aiders and abettors, conspirators, and facilitators liable through third-party actions. From Investigation to Repossession: A Full-Spectrum Recovery Practice Sequor Law is uniquely focused on pursuing and recovering client assets and value for the client at every phase of the dispute, from investigation and strategic case development through litigation, arbitration, pre-judgment remedies, and enforcement. Every day, we rise to meet the increasingly sophisticated methods used to conceal, transfer, or launder assets across jurisdictions. Sequor Law pioneered the concept of “value recovery,” advancing beyond the traditional model of Asset Recovery limited to freezing and recovering tangible assets. Our focus is not solely on the assets themselves, but on maximizing total recoverable value. This includes pursuing claims against aiders and abettors, conspirators, and facilitators through direct third-party actions. Drawing on extensive experience in complex Asset Recovery matters, the firm has successfully recovered value in a wide range of scenarios, including claims arising from contracts procured through fraud or corruption, the exercise of restitution rights in criminal proceedings, the reopening of matrimonial settlements, and the enforcement of Judgments previously considered uncollectible. Fraudsters and corrupt actors frequently employ layered corporate structures, offshore vehicles, and multi-jurisdictional transfers to obscure beneficial ownership and move assets rapidly beyond reach. Addressing these schemes requires technical sophistication, deep knowledge of multiple legal systems, and sustained strategic execution. Sequor Law brings all three. Our team operates seamlessly across common law and civil law jurisdictions, allowing us to act quickly and effectively in complex cross-border environments. The firm’s Asset Recovery practice is focused on penetrating the inner circle of the wrongdoer and dismantling the structures used to shield assets. We deploy a full suite of legal tools, including asset freeze orders, pre-judgment remedies, advanced evidence-gathering mechanisms, insolvency proceedings, and direct claims against both wrongdoers and third-party facilitators. Piercing Complex Structures to Reach the Wrongdoer's Inner Circle Recognized Global Leaders Who Shaped an Entire Practice Area Sequor Law’s attorneys were instrumental in developing Asset Recovery as a globally recognized legal practice and continue to lead its evolution as new technologies and increasingly complex schemes emerge. The firm is consistently ranked among the leading practices worldwide in Asset Tracing & Recovery by Chambers & Partners and the Lexology Index. Sequor Law has also been recognized as Asset Recovery Firm of the Year, reflecting its sustained leadership in the field. Founding Shareholder Edward H. Davis, Jr. has been consistently ranked Band 1 globally by Chambers & Partners for Asset Tracing & Recovery, including most recently in 2025. He was also named Asset Recovery Lawyer of the Year by Who’s Who Legal in multiple consecutive years, underscoring the firm’s leadership at the highest level of the practice. There is no one-size-fits-all solution in Asset Recovery. Each matter requires a tailored strategy based on the facts, the jurisdictions involved, and the client’s objectives. Sequor Law is committed to identifying that strategy and executing it with precision, persistence, and a relentless global focus on securing results. Representative Representative Cases One of the Largest Ponzi Schemes in History Sequor Law represents the Joint Liquidators for Stanford International Bank, Ltd. (“SIB”) (in Liquidation). SIB, a bank located in Antigua that primarily sold certificates of deposit, played a central role in a worldwide Ponzi scheme, the second largest in history, perpetrated by Robert Allen Stanford, with losses to depositors estimated to exceed US$4.4 billion. Since May 12, 2011, when Marcus Wide and Hugh Dickson of Grant Thornton were appointed Joint Liquidators of the SIB estate in Antigua, Sequor Law has acted as co-general counsel with Caribbean counsel in global Asset Recovery efforts that have included recovering US$3.2 million from Panama, US$20 million from the United Kingdom, freezing assets in Antigua & Barbuda valued at US$212 million, launching a formal claims process, pursuing claims related to approximately US$330 million in frozen assets in Canada, Switzerland, and the U.K., filing damages claims valued at approximately US$5 billion against a Canadian bank, and initiating recovery efforts in Colombia against law firms and financial institutions. Sequor Law also initiated a Chapter 15 recognition proceeding in Dallas, Texas, and later helped the U.S. Judicial Administrator, the SEC, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Joint Liquidators, and others reach a global agreement and cross-border protocol. Recognition and Enforcement of UK Worldwide Freezing Order Sequor Law represents Novoship (UK) Limited and affiliated entities in a Judgment domestication and enforcement matter in Florida. After Novoship obtained approximately US$98 million in Judgments from the English High Court of Justice against a Venezuelan national and his companies for fraudulent acts relating to charter party contracts, and after the debtors breached a US$40 million settlement, Sequor Law obtained recognition of the English freezing injunction in Florida within 24 hours. The firm froze assets, commenced discovery before full recognition of the English Judgments, and uncovered nearly US$3.5 million in local bank funds and approximately US$1.5 million in Florida real estate. Coordinated proceedings in Florida, Switzerland, and London resulted in payment of the full settlement amount. Judgment Enforcement Against Sovereign in Bond Default Case Since 2008, Sequor Law has represented two major creditors of the Republic of Argentina in pursuing collection of more than US$1 billion in Judgments in Florida arising from Argentina’s 2001 bond default. Working with New York counsel, the firm pursued collection from assets located in Florida, including assets at the Miami office of Banco de la Nación Argentina, a bank wholly owned by the Argentine government. Representation of a Class of More Than 2,000 Victims of Caribbean Fraud Sequor Law represented a class of 2,232 victims of the Leadenhall Bank & Trust and Cash-4-Titles fraud in the British Virgin Islands and The Bahamas and recovered US$14.4 million. After Leadenhall entered liquidation and was sued in the U.S. District Court in Miami, the class obtained a final money Judgment of US$313 million in September 2007. Enforcement of that Judgment resulted in the US$14.4 million recovery, with approximately US$7 million more to be distributed thereafter. Proceedings Supplementary in Aid of Judgment Enforcement Sequor Law represented Robert J. Lodge and Robert K. Orr against SunTrust Bank. After obtaining an order for proceedings supplementary in aid of execution and conducting extensive discovery and depositions, the matter concluded in a favorable settlement in which significant funds were recovered by the Judgment creditor’s successor-in-interest. Deployment of International Treaties and U.S. Legal Claims Sequor Law represented a multinational Colombian food products company in recovering substantial losses for products obtained through fraud and deception. By deploying international treaties and U.S. domestic claims, the firm identified the products, prosecuted the defendants in the United States, and achieved a successful settlement. Representation of Peru in Kleptocracy Case Against Former Head of State Sequor Law represented the Government of Peru in litigation in Miami, Florida, where the plaintiff sought to attach the aircraft in which the President of Peru would travel to the United States. While asserting defenses under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, including insufficient service of process, lack of personal jurisdiction, and failure to state a claim, the firm also argued that Peru was immune from attachment and suit. The court held that the aircraft was “military hardware” and therefore not subject to attachment. Representation of an Instrumentality of the French Government in Asset Recovery Matter Sequor Law represented Creances, S.A.S. (“CDR”), successor to Societe de Banque Occidentale (“SDBO”) and an instrumentality of the Republic of France, in a matter involving a nearly US$100 million fraudulent loan transaction that led to the sale of the collateral land without repayment. Sequor Law helped develop the strategy that ultimately led to the recovery of millions of dollars in real estate. Representation of the Government of Trinidad and Tobago in Bid-Rigging and Corruption Case Sequor Law represents the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago in related fraud and corruption proceedings in Florida, Liechtenstein, The Bahamas, Panama, and Switzerland. The matters involved coordination with governmental authorities, assistance with MLAT requests, and support for extradition proceedings. The work resulted in the freezing, recovery, and repatriation of more than US$5 million, settlements exceeding US$5 million, and savings of more than US$30 million through the invalidation of a fraudulent contract. Representation of Caribbean Central Bank in Insurance Industry Fraud Sequor Law represented the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago in designing the legal strategy for the recovery of assets for the Central Bank of Trinidad and Tobago in the CLICO insurance company corruption scandal. Corruption-Related Asset Recovery on Behalf of Antigua and Barbuda Sequor Law represented the Government of Antigua and Barbuda in a corruption matter spanning Florida, Bermuda, Hong Kong, Switzerland, the Isle of Man, and Cayman. The civil case resulted in the freezing, recovery, and repatriation of stolen assets, the repatriation of US$12 million to the client, and the cancellation of a fraudulent contract that saved the government more than US$20 million in future expenditures.

Advice to the International Commission Against Impunity in Guatemala Sequor Law participated as part of a global team in advising CICIG in connection with corruption claims and other wrongdoing involving the former president and administration in Guatemala. First Chapter 15 Cross-Border Insolvency Case in Florida Involving Central American Banking Group Sequor Law represents Bancafe International Bank (in Liquidation) (“BIB”). After the failure of Banco Cafeteros de Guatemala, BIB, a Barbados entity with extensive operations in Guatemala and assets in the United States, entered bankruptcy in Barbados. Acting for the custodian, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Sequor Law filed the first Chapter 15 case in Florida and obtained recognition of the Barbados liquidation as the main foreign proceeding. The matter has included extensive discovery in the United States and recoveries that include more than US$54 million from a REFCO bankruptcy claim and approximately US$1 million from a New York account. Chapter 15 Case Stemming from One of the Largest Banking Failures in Brazilian History Sequor Law represents the judicial administrator of Banco Santos, S.A. (in Liquidation). After an investigation revealed a theft of more than US$1 billion through a multi-country scheme, Sequor Law initiated a Chapter 15 proceeding. The corresponding recognition helped secure valuable evidence in the United States and elsewhere and supported the recovery of artwork valued in the millions, along with additional multi-million-dollar recoveries through a confidential ancillary settlement. Brazilian Cross-Border Insolvency Case with More Than 300 Related Debtors Sequor Law represents Petroforte Brasileiro de Petroleo Ltda. (“Petroforte”) (in Liquidation). After Petroforte entered insolvency proceedings in Brazil and the bankruptcy was extended to more than 300 entities and individuals, Sequor Law obtained deposition testimony and documentary evidence in the United States and pursued analogous proceedings in the Caribbean and Central America. The evidence supported the Judicial Administrator’s efforts in Brazil and may support additional recovery litigation, including through Chapter 15. Leading Appellate and Section 1782 Decisions Sequor Law prevailed before the Eleventh Circuit in Talal Qais Abdulmunem Al Zawawi v. Diss (In re Talal Qais Abdulmunem Al Zawawi), 97 F.4th 1244 (11th Cir. 2024), reinforcing the importance of Chapter 15 in cross-border cooperation.

Led by two Chambers & Partners Band 1-ranked partners in Bankruptcy Litigation. Filed Florida's first Chapter 15. More Chapter 15 cases than any other firm. GRR 100 Bankruptcy & Insolvency Sequor Law represents clients in most aspects of bankruptcy and insolvency law both domestically and with insolvencies based outside the United States. The firm leverages unparalleled experience in connection with Chapter 15 of the Bankruptcy Code. Global Authority in Cross-Border Insolvency & Chapter 15 Practice Sequor Law provides comprehensive representation in all major aspects of bankruptcy and insolvency law, both in domestic and cross-border matters. In cross-border matters, the firm represents foreign-appointed fiduciaries responsible for the restructuring or liquidation of companies and individuals abroad. Sequor Law regularly appears in courts throughout the United States on behalf of foreign representatives. Having filed more Chapter 15 cases than any other firm , including the first Chapter 15 case ever filed in Florida, Sequor Law is consistently recognized as a leader in international insolvency and cross-border restructuring. Our attorneys frequently present at major conferences across North America, Latin America, Europe, and beyond on insolvency, Asset Recovery, and multi-jurisdictional enforcement. Sequor Law has been counsel in a substantial number of the Southern District of Florida’s reported Chapter 15 decisions, reinforcing its standing as one of the most experienced firms in cross-border insolvency nationwide. In In re Zawawi, the Eleventh Circuit held that 11 U.S.C. § 109 does not apply to Chapter 15, confirming that recognition is available even when a foreign debtor lacks residence, domicile, a place of business, or property in the United States. That decision is particularly significant because it ensures foreign representatives may obtain recognition and access essential discovery and enforcement tools without first establishing a U.S. nexus. The firm has handled Chapter 15 matters arising from jurisdictions including Antigua, Barbados, the British Virgin Islands, Canada, the Cayman Islands, the United Kingdom, Argentina, Austria, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Romania. Sequor Law has also served as lead counsel in recognition proceedings filed in foreign courts, including Australia, Colombia, the Isle of Man, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

Having navigated disputes caused by poorly drafted arbitration clauses, Sequor Law also advises clients on drafting effective arbitration provisions for business transactions. The firm’s attorneys regularly lecture on arbitral clause drafting and strategy. Arbitration often gives rise to parallel litigation, whether to compel arbitration, resist efforts to circumvent arbitration agreements, or confirm or vacate awards. Sequor Law has litigated each of these issues and coordinates with trusted foreign counsel to craft a global strategy. Coordinated Global Strategy Across Arbitration and Parallel Proceedings The Benchmark for Board-Certified International Arbitration Excellence Sequor Law’s lawyers are recognized leaders in the field.

- High-Net-Worth Disputes | Hidden Assets | Sequor Law
Tracing concealed and undervalued assets in high-net-worth matrimonial and commercial disputes. Forensic accounting, global investigators, and litigation funding support. High-Net-Worth Disputes The Sequor Law team is equipped with sophisticated investigative tools and access to a global network of investigators, accountants, and international lawyers experienced in identifying assets that were not disclosed or were grossly undervalued in matrimonial, inheritance, and other family matters. Sequor Law not only finds these assets, but works to recover concealed personal wealth for its clients. Recovering What Was Hidden: Complex Asset Tracing in High-Net-Worth Disputes High-net-worth individuals often hide assets from their spouses, particularly when anticipating divorce. Similarly, family members in control of inherited property may seek to hide it from rightful heirs. These assets are frequently placed in complex corporate structures, offshore holdings, trusts, and similar vehicles designed to keep them out of reach. Where an aggrieved spouse or heir has been left with litigation fatigue and limited resources to fund recovery efforts, Sequor Law works closely with litigation funders experienced in identifying and financing matters with strong recovery potential. Experienced family law attorneys understand that asset disclosure fraud is common in high-net-worth divorce matters. That is why Board-Certified Marital and Family Law attorneys, members of the International Academy of Family Lawyers, and members of the American College of Trial Lawyers frequently co-counsel with and refer asset investigation and recovery matters to Sequor Law.

- Financial Fraud | Sequor Law
Led by a former ICC FraudNet Executive Director. Multi-jurisdictional fraud investigations and asset recovery across the Caribbean, Latin America, and Europe Financial Fraud Sequor Law frequently coordinates multi-jurisdictional investigations and asset recovery efforts with legal, forensic and investigative experts in the United States and other global jurisdictions, leveraging our leadership in the International Chamber of Commerce’s (ICC) FraudNet. Strategic Legal Responses to Complex Financial Fraud Schemes Individuals, businesses, institutions, governments, and government instrumentalities are victimized by financial fraud every day. The losses are staggering, and the effects are often devastating. No one, regardless of sophistication, is fully immune. When faced with financial fraud, victims must decide whether to act to redress the harm and hold the fraudster and the fraudster’s facilitators accountable. Inaction benefits only the wrongdoer and makes the loss permanent. Sequor Law has built a financial fraud practice focused on helping victims investigate misconduct and pursue effective legal strategies and claims against fraudsters of every kind. Sequor Law’s financial fraud team frequently leads and coordinates multi-jurisdictional investigations and asset recovery efforts with legal, forensic, and investigative professionals across the Caribbean, Central and South America, Canada, Europe, and Asia. With expertise in finance and accounting and fluency in multiple languages, the team analyzes global evidence in real time and drives cases forward as quickly and cost-effectively as possible. The firm also maintains tested relationships with third-party litigation funders that can help victims prosecute financial fraud claims against well-funded adversaries. Real-Time Global Intelligence Across Languages and Legal Systems Rapid Global Deployment Through the World's Premier Fraud Network Sequor Law leverages its leadership role in the ICC’s FraudNet, the premier financial fraud and asset recovery network in the world. Through this network, whether the fraud’s nexus and the ultimate destination of misappropriated assets are in the United States or elsewhere, the firm can mobilize a truly global response. Representative Representative Cases One of the Largest Ponzi Schemes in History Sequor Law represents the Joint Liquidators for Stanford International Bank, Ltd. (“SIB”) (in Liquidation). SIB, a bank located in Antigua that primarily sold certificates of deposit, played a central role in a worldwide Ponzi scheme, the second largest in history, perpetrated by Robert Allen Stanford, with losses to depositors estimated to exceed US$4.4 billion. Since May 12, 2011, when Marcus Wide and Hugh Dickson of Grant Thornton were appointed Joint Liquidators of the SIB estate in Antigua, Sequor Law has acted as co-general counsel with Caribbean counsel in global Asset Recovery efforts that have included recovering US$3.2 million from Panama, US$20 million from the United Kingdom, freezing assets in Antigua & Barbuda valued at US$212 million, launching a formal claims process, pursuing claims related to approximately US$330 million in frozen assets in Canada, Switzerland, and the U.K., filing damages claims valued at approximately US$5 billion against a Canadian bank, and initiating recovery efforts in Colombia against law firms and financial institutions. Sequor Law also initiated a Chapter 15 recognition proceeding in Dallas, Texas, and later helped the U.S. Judicial Administrator, the SEC, the U.S. Department of Justice, the Joint Liquidators, and others reach a global agreement and cross-border protocol. Representation of a Class of More Than 2,000 Victims of Caribbean Fraud Sequor Law represented a class of 2,232 victims of the Leadenhall Bank & Trust and Cash-4-Titles fraud in the British Virgin Islands and The Bahamas and recovered US$14.4 million. After Leadenhall entered liquidation and was sued in the U.S. District Court in Miami, the class obtained a final money Judgment of US$313 million in September 2007. Enforcement of that Judgment resulted in the US$14.4 million recovery, with approximately US$7 million more to be distributed thereafter. Deployment of International Treaties and U.S. Legal Claims Sequor Law represented a multinational Colombian food products company in recovering substantial losses for products obtained through fraud and deception. By deploying international treaties and U.S. domestic claims, the firm identified the products, prosecuted the defendants in the United States, and achieved a successful settlement. Representation of Instrumentality of the French Government in Asset Recovery Matter Sequor Law represented Créances, S.A.S. (“CDR”), successor to Société de Banque Occidentale (“SDBO”) and an instrumentality of the Republic of France, in a matter involving a nearly US$100 million fraudulent loan transaction that led to the sale of the collateral land without repayment. Sequor Law helped develop the strategy that ultimately led to the recovery of millions of dollars in real estate. Representation of Caribbean Central Bank in Insurance Industry Fraud Sequor Law represented the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago in designing the legal strategy for the recovery of assets for the Central Bank of Trinidad and Tobago in the CLICO insurance company corruption scandal. First Chapter 15 Cross-Border Insolvency Case in Florida Involving Central American Banking Group Sequor Law represents Bancafe International Bank (in Liquidation) (“BIB”). After the failure of Banco Cafeteros de Guatemala, BIB, a Barbados entity with extensive operations in Guatemala and assets in the United States, entered bankruptcy in Barbados. Acting for the custodian, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Sequor Law filed the first Chapter 15 case in Florida and obtained recognition of the Barbados liquidation as the main foreign proceeding. The matter has included extensive discovery in the United States and recoveries that include more than US$54 million from a REFCO bankruptcy claim and approximately US$1 million from a New York account. Chapter 15 Case Stemming from One of the Largest Banking Failures in Brazilian History Sequor Law represents the judicial administrator of Banco Santos, S.A. (in Liquidation). After an investigation revealed a theft of more than US$1 billion through a multi-country scheme, Sequor Law initiated a Chapter 15 proceeding. The corresponding recognition helped secure valuable evidence in the United States and elsewhere and supported the recovery of artwork valued in the millions, along with additional multi-million-dollar recoveries through a confidential ancillary settlement. Brazilian Cross-Border Insolvency Case with More Than 300 Related Debtors Sequor Law represents Petroforte Brasileiro de Petroleo Ltda. (“Petroforte”) (in Liquidation). After Petroforte entered insolvency proceedings in Brazil and the bankruptcy was extended to more than 300 entities and individuals, Sequor Law obtained deposition testimony and documentary evidence in the United States and pursued analogous proceedings in the Caribbean and Central America. The evidence supported the Judicial Administrator’s efforts in Brazil and may support additional recovery litigation, including through Chapter 15. Open Edward H.

- Judgment & Arbitral Award Enforcement | Sequor Law
Enforcing large judgments and arbitral awards for Fortune 500 companies, global banks, and sovereigns. Pursuing nominees, alter egos, and facilitators of concealment Judgment & Arbitral Award Enforcement Sequor Law represents Fortune 50 companies, global banks, large foreign corporations, and government entities in judgment and arbitral award collection matters. Decades of Experience Enforcing Complex Judgments & Awards Worldwide Sequor Law has decades of experience enforcing large judgments and arbitral awards rendered in the United States and abroad, including against large corporations and sovereigns. The firm represents Fortune 500 companies, global banks, major foreign corporations, and government entities in judgment and arbitral award collection matters. Sequor Law uses cash-flow analysis and asset tracing methods to expose concealed assets. The firm has substantial experience in post-judgment evidence gathering and recovery methods, including garnishments, freeze orders, sequestration orders, and writs of execution. In addition to identifying debtor assets, Sequor Law vigorously pursues nominees, alter egos, and others who improperly received money or property from the debtor. Where accountants, attorneys, or other asset protection specialists participate in concealment schemes, Sequor Law pursues conspiracy and aiding-and-abetting claims against those facilitators. Post-judgment and post-award enforcement has become a highly sophisticated and specialized practice, which is why leading litigators and litigation funders in the United States and abroad refer hard-earned judgments to Sequor Law for enforcement. Tracing Assets, Piercing Schemes, & Pursuing Every Responsible Party Representative Representative Cases Representation of Decedent’s Estate in Judgment Collection Sequor Law represented the personal representative of a decedent’s estate in a New York probate matter enforcing a high-value judgment against a family member who misappropriated estate assets and misused a limited power of attorney. The matter began with domestication of the New York judgment under the Florida Enforcement of Foreign Judgments Act. Brazilian Judgment Holder in Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgment Sequor Law represented the holder of a high-value Brazilian Judgment in obtaining recognition under Florida’s Uniform Out-of-Country Money Judgment Act, defeating arguments that the Brazilian orders were not final because they arose from a homologated settlement. The case included depositions and trial testimony from Brazilian law experts. Defense of Regional Bank Against Customer Claims Regarding PPP Loans Sequor Law successfully defended Ocean Bank against allegations that the bank failed to properly administer PPP loan processes in connection with a forgiveness request. Defense of Regional Bank Against Assignee Regarding Overdraft Fees Sequor Law successfully defended Ocean Bank against allegations by an assignee in an assignment for the benefit of creditors that the bank improperly assessed overdraft fees and charges. Representation of Barclays Bank in Letter of Credit Dispute Sequor Law obtained summary Judgment establishing that, under UCC Article 5 and applicable law, a letter of credit issuer had no preferred rights to proceeds paid under the letter of credit.
