Financial Expertise in Crisis: A Masterclass in Litigation, Valuation, and Bankruptcy Advisory Services
Navigating financial distress, legal disputes, and complex bankruptcy proceedings requires a rare blend of valuation acumen, investigative skill, and litigation-ready analysis. The comprehensive five-part training series delivers the full spectrum of technical knowledge and strategic insight required by professionals working in high-stakes financial environments.
Drawing on five expert-led modules, each which stands on its own, this course provides participants with a step-by-step roadmap for delivering services to distressed businesses, supporting reorganization efforts, investigating fraud, pursuing recovery actions, and performing litigation-based valuations—all within the framework of current bankruptcy law, valuation standards, and evidentiary requirements.
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Identify the roles and responsibilities of financial experts during all stages of bankruptcy and reorganization proceedings
- Recognize indicators of fraud—including embezzlement, insider trading, and financial statement manipulation—and the forensic tools used to investigate them
- Determine the requirements for confirming a Chapter 11 plan, including feasibility, classification of claims, and plan impairment
- Determine whether a pre-bankruptcy transfer meets the legal criteria for avoidance under Bankruptcy Code §547 (preferences) or §548 (fraudulent transfers)
- Select the appropriate solvency test—balance sheet, capital adequacy, or cash flow—for a given legal or financial scenario
- Differentiate between ordinary and improper corporate structures using alter ego principles and veil-piercing indicators
- Identify the legal and evidentiary standards for expert testimony in bankruptcy and financial litigation
- Select financial forecasts and projections to assess plan viability or capital sufficiency in distressed businesses
- Determine when retrojection, extrapolation, or forensic reconstruction is needed due to gaps in financial data
- Recognize how to structure and support reorganization plans with appropriate financial disclosures and valuation evidence
- Select and apply valuation methods that align with litigation objectives, bankruptcy code definitions, and fair market value principles
- Differentiate between GAAP-based financial reporting and the adjustments required for insolvency or fraud analyses
