Based on the posts, it appears that you bought the assets of Buckeye Clear Title, hired the owner, kept the office space lease, kept the phone/fax numbers in order to capitalize on leads, or what is also known as "good will" of Buckeye Clear Title. In the process, the posts indicate that abstractors and creditors were left unpaid. It would seem plausible that these creditors could join forces to hire counsel to determine the following:

1. Are you a BFP of the business assets (purchaser for value without knowledge of claims)?

2. If you are not a BFP, could those assets (including any "good will") be judicially attached to pay those bills?

3. Can the actions of the prior owner in facilitating this transaction support a "piercing of the corporate veil" such that creditors could file against him/her for personal liability?

The bottom line is that the posts indicate there are abstractors who performed work on behalf of Buckeye Clear Title that are owed money. Your willingness to capitalize on leads from Buckeye Clear Title and hire the owner calls into question your post stating that you hired people from Buckeye "who have the experience you desire of people who have been in the industry."
