How does federal law affect DAPTs?
September 11, 2025 – Kimberly Hegwood
Federal law, particularly bankruptcy law, can impact the effectiveness of DAPTs. For example, there is a 10-year look-back period under federal bankruptcy law, during which asset transfers to a DAPT may be scrutinized. Establish a DAPT well in advance of any financial difficulties to avoid legal challenges.
