About EDS Court-Appointed Receiver/Keeper Services
A Court-Appointed Receiver or Keeper owes a fiduciary duty to the Court and all parties involved in the litigation to preserve, protect, manage, and operate the property, collect all receipts, and pay all necessary bills associated with the property, such as those related to insurance and utilities, rents, and provide monthly accountings to the court and all interested parties. The Court also allows the Receiver/Keeper to make necessary improvements to the property as well as market it for sale and/or lease.
The Appointment of a Receiver/Keeper requires highly-trained—highly skilled—highly credentialed—highly experienced special-assets and special-situations transitional management, valuation, and disposition experts with decades of proven experience and unimpeachable credibility who master the facts and are able to present clear, objective, and compelling findings to judges.
The success of the Receiver/Keeper is predicated upon their qualifications—education, experience, training, and credibility. EDS’s unsurpassed global qualifications, decades of experience, and unimpeachable credibility afford it an unparalleled opportunity to serve as a trusted Court-Appointed Fiduciary.
