Smarter lent money to a Borrower to buy a large, 230-acre parcel in Alpine. Unbeknownst to Smarter, Borrower had been fraudulently taking funds from investors for years using forged financial statements. The house of cards that Borrower built fell apart within a year of Smarter\u2019s loan. As Smarter moved towards foreclosure, Borrower then sought bankruptcy protection. With the firm\u2019s help, Smarter was able to successfully and timely obtain relief from the automatic bankruptcy stay and foreclose on the fraudster Borrower\u2019s property to recoup its investment, all while Borrower was under criminal investigation.

At the inception of the Company, Manager A suspected Manager B of stealing funds from the Company. Manager B had exclusive access to all the books and maintained a similar company covering a different territory in Los Angeles. Knowing that funds had been commingled and assuming that there was some wrongdoing, Manager A ousted Manager B and went on to build a very successful company.
