The Premier Integrated Solution for Both Creditors and Debtors.

Kobre & Kim currently acts as enforcement counsel on the two largest international arbitration award enforcement projects in the world. As the only firm able to deliver the full spectrum of global asset recovery services, our team has been featured on the cover of The Wall Street Journal and recognized repeatedly in legal industry publications as one of the most highly regarded judgment enforcement/asset recovery firms.

Our team includes several former U.S. Department of Justice and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission lawyers with deep experience in international asset investigations and forfeiture, including extensive knowledge in regard to varying confidentiality and banking secrecy laws.

Our lawyers also include English barristers and solicitors (English King's Counsel among them) with a track record litigating in various offshore jurisdictions. In addition, our offshore team has significant experience both attacking and defending sophisticated offshore trusts and structures, as well as detangling the complex asset protection schemes sometimes used to hide assets from creditors, especially in the context of cross-border insolvency litigation.

Alternative Fee Arrangements.

In many cases, our clients can take advantage of our success-based alternative fee arrangements. We offer a variety of arrangements including those in which we advance all the expenses of collection (including international travel and local counsel fees) and are paid our fees only from funds recovered from the debtor.

Judgments and Arbitration Award Broker-Dealer Services.

We leverage our expertise and network of contacts to assist parties that wish to buy or sell large-value judgments or arbitration awards. We assist by conducting a risk-adjusted present value analysis, identifying suitable bidders, organizing an auction or private two-party transaction, and negotiating the sale terms.
