The Importance of Pre-Litigation Asset Searches in Dispute Resolution

 In the realm of Dispute resolution, particularly within the Indian legal landscape, the significance of pre-litigation asset searches cannot be overstated. These searches involve a comprehensive examination of an individual's or entity's financial holdings to determine their financial worth and identify assets that may be subject to legal proceedings.

Strategic Advantages in Negotiations and Litigation

The pre-litigation asset search wouldn't record time-stamping of defendant assets at the time of original claim. However, it can prove very useful in stopping a fraudulent transfer, since any subsequent transfer of assets to affiliated parties after the filing of a lawsuit is considered fraudulent that could be unwound at the entry of judgment.

Facilitating Enforcement of Judgments

Before initiating litigation, it is important to locate the property of a party, especially in a case of cross-border enforcement of judgments. This knowledge helps legal teams identify the procedures that would obtain and enforce a judgment abroad more easily and quickly.

Mitigating Risks and Informing Legal Strategy

Pre-litigation asset searches are done in connection with all kinds of legal matters, such as lawsuits related to business disputes or the enforcement of judgments against judgment-debtors. Thereby, it provides attorneys with a basis on which to make informed decisions regarding their chosen course of action.
