Judgment Collection

You have just spent the last two years litigating your lawsuit. You went to trial and were awarded a judgment… now what?

You are in the same boat a majority of litigants after trial. In fact, about 80% of all judgments awarded never get collected because collecting a judgment is often the most difficult part of winning a lawsuit. The court has the power to award you your judgment but you hold the sole responsibility to enforce it. Unfortunately, this leaves you with a piece of paper called a judgment, and the debtor is probably still refusing to pay just as they did before you sued them.

That’s where we come in. You can count on SVA Lawyers to enforce your judgments. We exhaust all possible ways to collect your judgments, including actions and thorough investigations involving:

  • Asset attachments/executions
  • Garnishments, all types: taxes, wages, third parties, receivables
  • Claim and deliveries (replevins)
  • Judgment debtor exams
  • Receiverships
  • Warrants/bonds
  • Use of court officers, deputy sheriffs, process servers who we train
  • Computerized assets locators, bank locators, employment locators, vital information, personal property, real property
  • Social media
  • Affiliated business/successor business
  • Interest, costs, court officer fees
  • Skipping
  • Stipulations
  • Consent judgments
  • Effective calls, pre- and post-judgment
  • Credit bureaus/credit data
