As a Receiver in order to provide cost effective services, Mr. Bennett provides nessecary requirements of the Receivership Estate without having to go to outside counsel and consultants. Most motions and orders necessary for the Receivership Estate can be prepared by the plaintiff’s counsel. Combining receivership and property management services provide a more cost effective result to all parties.

As a Receiver, a relationship is created with both plaintiff and defendant so that any issues which may require court approval or may be disputed issues can be resolved through the Receiver and not through costly, protracted adversarial Court and legal proceedings.

He has also served as Receiver for some of the most challenged properties in South Los Angeles.
