Building a monetary claim involving multiple transactions and pieces of evidence, quantifying the damage, and examining collection options.
What makes a monetary claim "complex"?
A complex monetary claim is not measured only by the amount: it is measured by the multiplicity of transactions and parties, by multi-year accounting, by a combination of causes of action (contractual, tort, unjust enrichment), by the need for experts, accountants, appraisers, actuaries, and by battles over documents and disclosure. These are cases in which the organized party, who arrives with structured accounting, sorted documents, and expert opinions, defeats the party who arrives with a "sense of grievance."
The proper construction of the claim
A winning monetary claim is built backward: first, all existing evidence is mapped out—contracts, invoices, bank statements, correspondence; the gaps are identified and filled—document demands, disclosure orders, expert opinions; and only then is a statement of claim drafted, focused on the strong causes of action. The cause of action of unjust enrichment serves as a safety net alongside the contractual causes of action, for cases in which the money was transferred without an orderly contractual basis.
Collection: think about it from day one
A judgment that cannot be collected is worth paper. Therefore, in substantial claims, the following are examined from the outset: temporary attachments on accounts and assets, cautionary notes, orders prohibiting disposition, and in appropriate cases, piercing the corporate veil and joining controlling shareholders who diverted operations. A successful motion for a temporary attachment changes the balance of power and brings a good settlement closer.
