A litigation firm needed to establish whether a judgment debtor held recoverable assets outside their home jurisdiction before pursuing enforcement.
FLSS ran parallel asset screening across six jurisdictions using GlobalScan and local source networks, cross-referencing corporate registries, property records and beneficial ownership filings.
Recoverable assets were identified in two jurisdictions within twelve business days, giving counsel a defensible basis to proceed with enforcement action.
Counsel had a favourable judgment but no visibility into whether the debtor held anything worth pursuing outside their home jurisdiction. Before committing to enforcement proceedings — a process that can run for months and consume significant legal fees — the firm needed a defensible, evidence-based picture of recoverable assets.
Our team scoped the engagement under the AIRP methodology, running parallel screening across six jurisdictions simultaneously rather than sequentially. GlobalScan's indexed archive flagged historical corporate filings and property registrations that would have taken a single-jurisdiction search weeks to surface, while our local source networks reconciled ownership and confirmed current standing.
The completed file identified recoverable assets in two of the six jurisdictions, each traceable to a sourced, timestamped filing. Counsel used the report to make an informed decision on where to pursue enforcement, avoiding the cost of chasing jurisdictions with no realistic recovery prospect.
