Post-judgment enforcement
Turning court judgments into real recoveries
Judgment debt collection enforces court-awarded judgments where the debtor has been legally ordered to pay. Winning in court is only half the battle: collecting the awarded amount often takes specialized post-judgment action.

Our approach
How we enforce a judgment
Step 1: Discover
In-depth investigation of bank accounts, real estate, business interests and employment, using public records and proprietary databases.
Step 2: Garnish & levy
Court-approved garnishments and levies secure funds from wages, bank accounts or other sources, with strict procedural compliance.
Step 3: Attach property
Where applicable, we coordinate with sheriffs, marshals or bailiffs to seize or attach non-exempt property, with proper notice.
Step 4: Renew & report
Renewals and domestication keep the judgment enforceable, with payment reporting and disbursement tracking throughout.

What is judgment debt collection?
It is the enforcement of a court-awarded judgment where the debtor has been legally ordered to pay but hasn't. Collecting the awarded amount often takes specialized post-judgment action.
How do you find the debtor's assets?
Through post-judgment discovery: we investigate bank accounts, real estate holdings, business interests and employment sources using public records and proprietary databases.
What enforcement tools do you use?
Court-approved wage garnishments and bank levies, and, where applicable, seizure or attachment of non-exempt property through sheriffs, marshals or bailiffs, always with strict procedural compliance.
Can you enforce a judgment from another state?
Yes. Our legal partners can assist with renewals and domestication to keep a judgment enforceable across state or international jurisdictions. See debt collection litigation.
