You have secured a Judgment, but have not realized any recovery. What should you do now?
CreditorCollections utilizes various methods which can result in the enforcement of your Judgment. Our goal is to recover money owed to you quickly and within budget. These methods include:
• Domestication of foreign judgments - this is the process whereby judgments or final determinations from other US states or foreign nations are recorded in Florida. Thereafter, collection efforts can be commenced.
• Examination of the Judgment Debtor's Assets - after a Judgment has been obtained, a Judgment Debtor canbe compelled to disclose its assets and liabilities. We can subpoena the debtor or a debtor examination and serve financial disclosure requests.
• Bank Garnishments- We utilize databases and private investigators to locate the debtor's banking assets. If bank accounts are located, CreditorCollections will garnish (freeze) these accounts.
• Brokerage Garnishments- Similarly, we utilize databases and private investigators to uncover brokerage and securities accounts. Once located, CreditorCollections will immediately take steps to garnish these accounts.
• Garnishments - this is the process whereby a creditor can obtain the debtor’s property which is in the hands of the third party. Typically, this method is used to obtain the debtor’s funds which are located in a bank or other financial institution.
• Attachments - this is the process whereby property of the creditor and in possession of the debtor is obtained by the creditor. Typically, a sheriff, marshal or other officer of the law will serve a writ of attachment and the attached property is sold at public sale to satisfy the debt due and owing.
• Executions (seizure and sale) of Real and Personal Property- Once a Judgment has been obtained and properly perfected, the Clerk of Court can issue a Writ of Execution. We utilize executions to seize and publicly sell the judgment debtor's real and personal property to satisfy your Judgment.
