If the transfer was made to avoid paying known creditor claims, then refer to

The Uniform Fraudulent transfers Act states:

SECTION 4. TRANSFERS FRAUDULENT AS TO PRESENT AND
FUTURE CREDITORS.
(a) A transfer made or obligation incurred by a debtor is fraudulent as to a
creditor, whether the creditor’s claim arose before or after the transfer was made or
the obligation was incurred, if the debtor made the transfer or incurred the
obligation:
(1) with actual intent to hinder, delay, or defraud any creditor of the
debtor; or
(2) without receiving a reasonably equivalent value in exchange for the
transfer or obligation, and the debtor:
(i) was engaged or was about to engage in a business or a transaction
for which the remaining assets of the debtor were unreasonably small in relation to
the business or transaction; or
(ii) intended to incur, or believed or reasonably should have believed
that he [or she] would incur, debts beyond his [or her] ability to pay as they became
due.
(b) In determining actual intent under subsection (a)(1), consideration may
be given, among other factors, to whether:
(1) the transfer or obligation was to an insider;
(2) the debtor retained possession or control of the property transferred
after the transfer;
(3) the transfer or obligation was disclosed or concealed;
(4) before the transfer was made or obligation was incurred, the debtor
had been sued or threatened with suit;
(5) the transfer was of substantially all the debtor’s assets;
(6) the debtor absconded;
(7) the debtor removed or concealed assets;
19
(8) the value of the consideration received by the debtor was reasonably
equivalent to the value of the asset transferred or the amount of the obligation
incurred;
(9) the debtor was insolvent or became insolvent shortly after the
transfer was made or the obligation was incurred;
(10) the transfer occurred shortly before or shortly after a substantial
debt was incurred; and
(11) the debtor transferred the essential assets of the business to a lienor
who transferred the assets to an insider of the debtor.
