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.

Sequor Law's March 2019 wins include a $22M civil theft judgment against a fraudulent Curacao scheme, a Chapter 15 revenue rule victory, and a successful appellate defense for First Citizens Bank. Recent Wins – March 2019 Open Case Results Open February 28, 2019 2 minutes read Sequor Law Sequor Law founding shareholder, Ed Davis , and attorney Nyana Miller , together with other members of the Sequor Law team, recently secured a $22 million civil theft judgment for a South American finance company. The client had lost $8.6 million to the thief, who attempted to hide behind a complex scheme involving a Curacao investment fund, the fund’s professional managers, several brokers, and a corporate entity that received the moneys as custodian for another entity. After years of litigation (including an appeal relating to service of process that was heard by the Venezuelan Supreme Court), the trial court found the corporate custodian and the individual who controlled that company liable for unjust enrichment, conversion, fraud and civil theft. Greg Grossman and Nyana Miller faced an issue of first impression regarding the revenue rule and Chapter 15 of the US Bankruptcy Code. The revenue rule is the common law principle that one sovereign does not collect or enforce the taxes of another (absent an exception, such as a tax treaty). In a cross border bankruptcy case where the largest creditor is the foreign tax agency and the debtor argues that the bankruptcy was a means of enforcing foreign tax claims, Sequor defeated a motion to dismiss the Chapter 15 case. Judge Delano of the US Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida held that a court in a chapter 15 case does not administer claims and therefore recognition of a foreign proceeding cannot violate the revenue rule. The Fourth District Court of Appeals affirmed a final judgment entered in favor of First Citizens Bank & Trust Company, N.A., represented by Greg Grossman and Dan Coyle of Sequor Law. The Court rejected the appellants’ arguments that causes of action against the borrowers and guarantors for breach of note and breach of guarantees could not have been assigned by the FDIC, on behalf of Sun American Bank, to First Citizens after Sun American Bank had obtained a final judgment of foreclosure.

Sequor Law analyzes Florida's new 'substantial doubt' standard for recognizing foreign judgments and its implications for creditors seeking enforcement in Florida courts. New ‘Substantial Doubt’ Standard for Foreign Judgment Enforcement in Fla. Open Legal Insights Open August 7, 2018 3 minutes read Sequor Law A recent change to a state law concerning the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in Florida may make it easier to avoid payment of valid debts. By Arnoldo B. Lacayo, Juan J. Mendoza and Andres H. Sandoval Left to right: Juan Mendoza, Andres Sandoval and Arnoldo B. Lacayo, Sequor Law A recent change to a state law concerning the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments in Florida may make it easier to avoid payment of valid debts. An amendment to the Uniform Out-of-Country Foreign Money- Judgment Recognition Act (the act) adds two further grounds for denial of recognition of foreign country money-judgments, potentially making it harder to recognize and enforce foreign judgments in the Sunshine State, a jurisdiction already viewed domestically and abroad as a debtor’s haven due to its generous exemptions. On March 19, House Bill No. 623 was signed into law and, per Article III, Section 9 of the Florida Constitution, went into effect on May 9. The bill adds two discretionary grounds to Section 55.605(2), Fla. Stat., to challenge recognition of a foreign money-judgment. Under these additional grounds, a Florida court need not recognize a foreign money-judgment if the judgment was rendered in circumstances that “raise substantial doubt about the integrity of the rendering court” or “the specific proceeding in the foreign court leading to the judgment was not compatible with the requirements of due process of law.” These new grounds apply only to judgments of other countries and not to judgments of other U.S. states, territories or commonwealths. Enacted in Florida in 1994, the act largely follows the 1962 version of the Uniform Foreign Money-Judgments Recognition Act (the Uniform Act), promulgated by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Law (the NCCUSL). The act applies to final, conclusive, and enforceable money-judgments of other countries. Generally, such judgments are entitled to recognition under the act; however, there are several mandatory and discretionary grounds set forth in Section 55.605, Fla. Stat., upon which a court may deny recognition. While the purpose of the act is to “provide a speedy and certain framework for recognition of foreign judgments,” Laager v. Kruger, 702 So. 2d 1362, 1363 (Fla. 3d DCA 1997), in practice, this may not be the case. At first glance, the new amendment may seem unnecessary as the act already provides avenues to challenge recognition of a foreign judgment if it is “rendered under a system which does not provide impartial tribunals or procedures compatible with the requirements of due process of law,” or if it is “obtained by fraud.” The official comment to the Uniform Act draws a distinction between the new and existing grounds by stating that the focus of these two new grounds is on the integrity and procedure of the specific court that rendered the judgment, rather than on the judicial system of the foreign country. Nevertheless, one potential concern is that the amendment invites a case-by-case review of foreign judgments, rather than further the “speedy and certain framework” the act intended to establish. This concern is compounded by the uncertainty as to the application of the nebulous “substantial doubt” standard when evaluating the “integrity” of the foreign court. Based on this language, some may argue that a debtor need only present enough evidence to raise substantial doubt in the mind of the trier of fact rather than affirmatively demonstrating fraud. Thusly, at face value, the amendment appears to welcome the enterprising debtor to argue the interpretation and limits of these new provisions in an effort to delay and possibly frustrate the recognition and enforcement of a legitimate foreign judgment. Though the “substantial doubt” standard appears broad and ambiguous, it should in fact be narrowly interpreted. The NCCUSL explains that the standard is tantamount to “a showing of corruption in the particular case that had an impact on the judgment that was rendered.” At least two courts have followed the NCCUSL’s guidance in this respect. See In re Carmona, No. 16-50155, 2018 WL 889358, at *13 (Bankr. S.D. Tex. Jan. 19, 2018); Savage v. Zelent, 243 N.C. App. 535, 545 (2015). Neither found “substantial doubt” as to the integrity of the foreign court. In short, the new amendment may leave room for abuse if courts do not adhere to the guidance of the Uniform Act and the interpretation of other courts. If so, the nebulous “substantial doubt” standard should have minimal impact for experienced creditor’s rights and asset recovery lawyers seeking to enforce valid foreign judgments entitled to recognition in Florida.

Get to know Sequor Law Attorney Miguel E. Del Rivero, who shares his passion for helping fraud victims, his global approach to asset recovery, and his path into international litigation. Attorney Spotlight – Get to Know Miguel E. Del Rivero Open Attorney Spotlight Open January 21, 2025 2 minutes read Sequor Law 1. What inspired you to pursue a law career? At my core, I have a passion for helping others, and at an early age I began to view the law as a powerful tool for doing so. I realized how daunting and intimidating the legal system can be, and I recognized the challenges individuals face when trying to advocate for themselves in such a complex and ever-evolving landscape. This inspired me to pursue a career as a resource for others—someone who can navigate the intricacies of the law with confidence. 2. Why did you choose the areas of law that you practice? I was drawn to my practice area for a couple reasons. It gives me the chance to do work that truly matters, which is helping people who have been wronged, and helping them receive justice is deeply rewarding. Also, I love the global nature of the work. Collaborating with individuals and clients from all over the world is something I never imagined would be a part of my career, and it is an opportunity I’m incredibly grateful for. 3. What skills do you draw upon when it comes to your specific practice areas? An emphasis on diligence has always been a guiding principle in my work. I firmly believe that the harder you work, the luckier you become. This means approaching every problem with thoroughness and methodical precision. By staying consistent and meticulous, I ensure that every detail is considered, and every potential solution is explored. Through this, it not only enhances the quality of my work but also increases the likelihood of success. 4. What is the most rewarding part about your job? One of the most fulfilling parts of my job is knowing that the work I do has a positive impact. Whether it’s helping someone seek justice or resolving a complex issue affecting their life, I’m driven by the knowledge that my efforts have a tangible impact on people’s lives. It’s what gets me out of bed in the morning and pushes me to do my best. 5. Tell us about a mentor who made an impact on your career. I’ve been incredibly lucky to have had two fantastic mentors early in my career: the Judges for whom I clerked for. Both exemplified a strong work ethic, yet they were generous with their time and guidance to help me grow as a young lawyer. They shaped how I think about the law and the kind of lawyer I want to be. 6. If you weren’t practicing law, what would you be doing? If I hadn’t gone into law, I might have gone into accounting. 7. What might people be surprised to learn about you? It might surprise people to know that I used to compete in chess at a national level, winning several tournaments. 8. What is a good book or article you read recently? A book I always find myself returning to is To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. It’s one of those books no matter how many times you read it, you keep returning to it. I even keep a copy of it in my office.

Sequor Law's Leyza B. Florin becomes IWIRC's first Hispanic Chair effective January 1, as the global insolvency and restructuring community announces new leadership and industry moves. Community roundup: IWIRC gets its first Hispanic chair amid new year hires and promotions Open In the News Open December 17, 2020 3 minutes read Sequor Law The International Women’s Insolvency and Restructuring Confederation (IWIRC) will have its first Hispanic chair come 1 January, as a Dutch firm hires from Loyens & Loeff, and Vinson & Elkins and Cooley promote in New York. Leyza B. Florin , a shareholder at Miami-based cross-border insolvency and asset recovery boutique Sequor Law, will become the first Hispanic chair of IWIRC’s board at the start of next year, after serving as vice-chair in 2020 under the outgoing chair, PwC partner Michelle Pickett in Ontario. Blanco’s new vice-chair is Lowenstein Sandler counsel Jennifer Kimble in New York, who is currently IWIRC’s secretary. Kimble will be replaced in the secretary role by Boston-based Marjorie Kaufman of management consulting firm Getzler Henrich & Associates, who is currently finance director. The current vice finance director, Karen Fellowes QC at Stikeman Elliott in Vancouver, will also now graduate into the directors’ role, while a new member of IWIRC’s executive board, Troutman Pepper partner Evelyn Meltzer in Wilmington, Delaware, will be appointed vice finance director. Fellowes joined Stikeman Elliott in July from DLA Piper, and is a former winner of IWIRC’s Fetner Award, which is given each year to an outstanding international member. Blanco – herself an IWIRC founders award-winner in 2019 – said she was “honoured” to have been named IWIRC’s next chair. “I will be a steward to the IWIRC mission and continue to make IWIRC accessible to everyone, increasing diversity and helping our worldwide members connect and forge productive relationships,” she said. In an inaugural speech delivered on 15 December at a hybrid in-person and virtual event for IWIRC’s 2020 Rising Star Award – an honour presented to Sequor Law attorney Nyana Miller , who is the first Latin America regional chair on IWIRC’s international board – Blanco said the chaos of this pandemic year had actually delivered “a silver-lining” in the form of online events. She jokingly thanked covid-19 for uncovering “this extra arrow in our quiver” and pledged to use virtual events to drive focus on inclusion, labelling them “an invaluable tool to help us in our mission – to connect women worldwide”. Speaking to GRR, Blanco notes that the past three years have seen IWIRC add Brazil, Latin America and Korea networks to its ranks, and that it is her ambition to work on expanding the European network and developing new networks during her time as chair. “Efforts are already in the works for the development of networks in New Zealand, Ireland, Dubai, South Africa and Pacific Northwest,” Blanco says. “It is my hope that women from across the globe who are not already represented in an IWIRC network will have a network to join and participate with IWIRC in the promotion of women in the insolvency field worldwide,” she adds, noting that anyone interested in joining or forming a new IWIRC network is welcome to get in touch with her directly. Blanco joined Sequor law in mid-2018 from GrayRobinson in Miami, alongside another shareholder, Fernando Menendez . She regularly works on international litigation and insolvency matters relating to the US and Latin America, especially Chapter 15 recognition cases. In November, she asked the US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida to recognise the most recent liquidator of Ukrainian bank PJSC Bank Finance and Credit, following a series of different appointments in the wake of the bank’s licence being revoked in 2015. She is also the regular author of GRR’s asset recovery column . Click here to read the full article.

A Florida federal judge remands Turkish businessmen's attempt to block a $388M arbitral award back to state court, finding their removal to federal court was untimely. Turkish Brothers’ $388M Award Fight Sent Back To State Court Open In the News Open February 11, 2020 3 minutes read Sequor Law By Kelly Zegers Law360 (February 11, 2020, 7:37 PM EST) — A Florida federal judge has let a Turkish company go back to state court as it seeks to enforce a $338 million arbitral award, finding that two Turkish businessmen’s removal to federal court last year was untimely. U.S. District Judge Rodney Smith said brothers Mustafa and Sefa Çevik’s time-barred removal of the case was an attempt to seek a different ruling after a Florida state court confirmed the arbitral award that stemmed from a soured chromium ore mining license deal with the company, Turchrome Krom Madencili Sanay Ve Dis Ticaret Ltd. Sirketi Turkey. In determining the Çevik brothers’ removal was untimely and granting the company’s motion to remand, the judge applied a previous court’s ruling on an international arbitral awards convention that found a party couldn’t willingly proceed with discovery and trial in state court only to remove “when the first bite of what appears to be a ripe apple turns extremely sour.” In this case, the brothers were trying to take a “second bite at the apple,” Judge Smith said. “It could not be clearer from defendants’ motions filed in the instant case that this is exactly what defendants are trying to do; after receiving an adverse ruling from the state court when the state court confirmed the arbitral award, defendants are now trying to obtain a different ruling in this court — first through removal and then through their motions to dismiss,” the judge said. The award in question had been issued to Turchrome in arbitration against Mustafa Çevik, which Turchrome initiated after yields at chromium ore sites failed to meet expectations. The arbitration took place in Paris under the auspices of the International Chamber of Commerce. The suit, which accuses Mustafa Çevik of fraudulently transferring certain real estate to Sefa in an effort to avoid paying the award, claims the two brothers have numerous assets in South Florida that could be used to enforce the award, including real estate, at least one business, and a Mercedes and a Range Rover. The federal judge’s ruling was in step with Turchrome’s contention that the Turkish businessmen failed to remove the case because the convention’s phrase “before the trial thereof” meant that trial begins when both sides present an argument on an issue of law or fact, according to court documents. The brothers called that interpretation “aggressive,” arguing that removal is timely as long as it happens before the state court has adjudicated on the merits of all of a plaintiff’s claims or dismissed the entire suit, the judge said. The judge acknowledged the businessmen’s reading of the existing case law on “before the trial” wasn’t unreasonable because there’s not a lot of case law on it. The Florida state court confirmed the arbitral award in May last year, according to court records. The brothers had moved to dismiss Turchrome’s motion to confirm the award. “The unfavorable ruling was not on just any claim; it was on the l[i]nchpin claim because the fraudulent transfer claims are dependent on confirmation of the arbitral award,” the judge said. Because of his finding on the timeliness issue, the federal judge said the court wouldn’t address Turchrome’s waiver argument. Turchrome had asserted the businessmen waived their rights to remove by litigating the case in state court before removal. The judge denied Turchrome’s motion for costs, according to the order. Representatives for the parties did not immediately respond to requests for comment Tuesday. Turchrome Krom Madencili Sanay Ve Dis Ticaret Ltd. Sirketi Turkey is represented in state court by Leyza B. Florin , Bruno de Camargo and Edward H. Davis Jr . of Sequor Law PA and Matthew D. McGill of Gibson Dunn & Crutcher LLP. Mustafa Çevik, Sefa Çevik and Charisma Marble LLC are represented by Aliette D. Rodz and Kristin Drecktrah Paz of Shutts & Bowen LLP. The case was Turchrome Krom Madencili Sanay Ve Dis Ticaret Ltd. Sirketi Turkey v. Cevik et al., case number 1:19-cv-22910, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. To view the original article, click here.

Sequor Law is recognized in Global Restructuring Review’s GRR 100 guide as a leading cross-border restructuring and insolvency law firm. Sequor Law Listed Among World’s Top 100 Cross-Border Restructuring and Insolvency Law Firms Open Awards & Recognition Open August 11, 2017 1 minute read Sequor Law Sequor Law is proud to be listed among the world’s 100 top cross-border restructuring and insolvency law firms in the Global Restructuring Review’s "GRR 100," a new annual guide. The guide recognizes our firm for its representation of insolvency estates and receiverships for international banks, sovereign governments and government institutions, multi-national corporations, and individuals where it represents insolvency practitioners from around the world, both in the United States and overseas multi-jurisdictional insolvencies around the world. The guide also recognizes Sequor Law for making over 20 Chapter 15 filings in the U.S. to recognize insolvency proceedings in diverse jurisdictions worldwide, filing more Chapter 15s than any other U.S. law firm. Firm co-founders Edward Davis and Greg Grossman are noted for many achievements in the guide, ranging from filing the first Chapter 15 bankruptcy petition in Florida to representing the joint liquidators of Stanford International Bank to recover assets for a $7 billion Ponzi scheme, the second-largest Ponzi scheme in the world. During the research period for the guide, the firm was instructed as counsel to the court-appointed liquidator and foreign representative of bankrupt Chilean investment firm Onix Capital, seeking to recover assets in excess of $100 million* from an alleged Ponzi scheme operated by Onix’s CEO. Our sincere thanks to our clients and colleagues for the opportunity to do what we love and earn so many distinguished awards and recognitions along the way. Indeed, Sequor Law derives its name from the Latin word “to pursue, to chase, to attain,” and signifies our core values: the agile, aggressive, and relentless pursuit of assets and success on behalf of our clients.
