In his role as Director, Mr. Wilson provides support for DWC and its clients on all projects related to receivership and advisory services. Within DWC’s receivership practice, Mr. Wilson is responsible for coordination of services, document control, and all other internal logistical support. His experience spans a wide array of complex rents and profits receiverships, and he has assisted in multiple properties involved in cannabis operations, including one recent takeover of a 7,500-square foot dispensary that involved illegal operations spanning a retail storefront, cultivation, manufacturing, and distribution. Assignment tasks ranged from the initial takeover process of changing out all locks and keys to revamping security systems and converting operating accounts.

Mr. Wilson also has recently worked on a $1.2 billion Ponzi-scheme receivership in a case brought by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Throughout the assignment, Mr. Wilson assisted the receiver in her role to recover as many investor funds as possible, including identifying any significant assets that may be available toward that recovery.

In DWC’s advisory services business, Mr. Wilson has been directly involved with the San Diego-based non-profit Jacobs Center for Neighborhood Innovations in providing essential third-party property management services and in assisting DWC’s real estate advisory team in its ongoing role for the foundation. Mr. Wilson’s advisory services role allows the DWC team to maximize efficiency by providing in-house processing of legal documents, basic accounting, and other administrative tasks.
