Episode Description / Show Notes:

• Learn what a fraudulent conveyance really means in legal and investigative terms.
• Discover how debtors may attempt to hide assets to avoid paying creditors.
• Understand that we are not giving legal advice—always consult a qualified attorney.
• Examples of fraudulent conveyance include:
  • A debtor transferring real estate, vehicles, or cash out of their name before or during a lawsuit.
  • A husband quitclaiming a shared property to his wife during litigation.
  • Someone transferring large sums of money to a relative’s bank account with no clear return of value.
• A court must declare a transfer as a fraudulent conveyance—you can’t just claim it based on suspicion.
• Creditors must present evidence such as:
  • Real estate deeds
  • Corporate filings
  • Certified documents showing asset transfers
• The court will only act when you file a proper legal argument—this is not automatic.
• You may need to prove the transfer had no fair exchange of value and was intended to shield assets.
• In many cases, attorneys may use a legal concept called a constructive trust—this means the person receiving the asset could be viewed as holding it in trust for the real owner (the debtor).
• If you suspect a fraudulent conveyance, document it early and consult a legal professional to possibly recover the hidden assets.
