RAS specializes in Bankruptcy management for real estate lenders, auto lenders, and consumer credit.  One of RAS’s keys to success is to recognize that Bankruptcy matters don’t always fall into the same bucket; each process must be managed with a unique approach.  RAS provides cradle-to-grave bankruptcy service to Clients on a 50 state basis.  When Servicer is advised of the Bankruptcy filing, RAS receives notice to review the case and determine the scope of representation necessary to protect Servicer’s interests.  Once reviewed, RAS engages in a dynamic process flow for those tasks to be performed, coordinates the necessary documents, and obtains other evidentiary support required to prepare its filings/motions.  RAS will handle and monitor the bankruptcy from referral to resolution.

The Processes handled by RAS include:

• Requests for Notice
• Proof of Claim
• Motions for Relief and/or Adequate Protection
• Plan Objections
• Notice of Payment Change/Fee Notices
• Mediation & Loss Mitigation
• Adversary Proceedings
• Motions to Value
• Defense of Claim
• Reaffirmation Agreements
• Other Litigation Bankruptcy Motions

RAS utilizes unparalleled technology in managing its Bankruptcy processes.  Examples of this include:
