WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT US
GENERAL FAQS
WHY DID 507 CONTACT ME?
507 Capital specializes in providing liquidity solutions to company globally by purchasing bankruptcy claims, distressed debt, liens, judgements, distressed assets, and frozen accounts.
We provide bespoke financial solutions to individuals and businesses who do not want, or cannot, own illiquid assets and receivables in unusual situations and offer creditors an opportunity to sell their receivables (claims) for an immediate cash settlement.
WHY SELL YOUR CLAIM?
There are several reasons you may wish to sell:
- Immediate Cash Payment – you may wish to sell your claim for an immediate cash injection to spend elsewhere.
- We take the risk and hassle out of the process – The bankruptcy process can be complex, uncertain and take many years.
- Time and money saved – the process can be complex but also can be expensive. Managing a claim accrue a lot of legal and administrative costs.
- No surprises – each case and claim faces an uncertain outcome. Both in terms of length of the process and value of your claim.
- Trade claims are for unpaid sales – this means your business booked revenue at the time of sale, but has not been paid. Sales are one factor that determine taxes due at the end of the year. You could be paying tax on the revenue corresponding to your claim, even though you have not been paid.
WHY DOES 507 WANT TO BUY THE CLAIM?
Our firm is specifically designed for analyzing, buying, and servicing bankruptcy claims. By aggregating claims we earn a profit by lowering the cost of administering the claims we buy. While you can keep hold of your claim to potentially recover for a greater distribution, many customers choose to sell to avoid any risk, time, hassle, and legal fees.
WHAT’S THE PROCESS?
Selling your claim is a fairly straight forward process consisting of two steps.
- Review and signing of a claim sales agreement. The sales agreement identifies the claim, price, and case. It also identifies the terms and conditions of the sale. 507 Capital uses a very simple sales agreement.
- Once the contract is signed by both the seller and 507 Capital, we will submit for payment and file the transfer with the corresponding bankruptcy court. Payment is received typically within two business days and we handle all the administrative tasks of transferring the claim.
HOW SOON WILL I BE PAID AND HOW?
For many claims the process from price agreement to receiving funds can be as quick as one day and almost always within two business days for sellers who choose to receive their payment by wire transfer.
We can also process payment by mailing a check, there are no hidden fees or other costs- we will send the full amount specified in our contract.
WHAT ARE THE RISKS?
Our customers often ask us for an explanation of the risks involved with selling their claim and how to mitigate them.
The primary risk to the seller corresponds to payment and the primary risk to 507 is purchasing a valid claim. These highly important risks are addressed in the sales contract. The seller has an enforceable right to payment under the contract and New York law, as does 507 have an enforceable right to transfer once the contract is signed. 507 Capital only reserves the right to reverse the sale of the claim is not really a claim (for example, if the goods or services were never really provided to the debtor). Other hazards of owning the claim 507 accepts responsibility for.
Payments are processed within two business days. If payment was not received the seller has 21 days to object to the transfer under Rule 3001(3)(2) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure. This protects the seller much like escrow. This would allow the seller to unwind the transfer for non-payment.
