- How AI is used
- Build the transfer table: date, amount, payee, antecedent debt, and the 90-day, one-year or two-year window. Write no count of the complaint.
- What the lawyer must review
- A proceeding to recover money or property is an adversary proceeding under Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 7001, with the exceptions stated in that rule. The lawyer writes and signs the complaint. By presenting it, the lawyer certifies under Rule 9011(b) that the legal contentions are warranted and that the factual contentions have evidentiary support, or are specifically identified as likely to have that support after a reasonable opportunity for investigation. A sanctions motion is served under Rule 7004 and is not filed if the challenged contention is withdrawn or corrected within 21 days after service, unless the court orders another period (Rule 9011(c)(2)). The elements are § 547(b) and the defences in § 547(c), or § 548(a) for a transfer or obligation on or within two years before the petition. The tool writes nothing that is filed.
