Enforce your own JudgmentA: Yes, perhaps you could enforce your own judgment. You may have to spend many hours learning how - and spend a lot of money too. Also - have you recovered a dime yet?
Enforcing judgments is not easy.
If it was easy, you would have already collected, right?
You can fix your own pipes - but
most of us hire plumbers.
Note that if enforcement is done wrong - a
debtor might have grounds to sue you.
You might even lose your judgment - and worse yet,
owe the debtor money.)
You can collect your own judgment - but most people have
much better results selling it so a pro can try to
enforce the judgment. They do it every day -
and know how to get results.
Why do Judgment Enforcers want to own your judgment, why won't they assist me in collecting my judgment? The answer is that to give legal advice or represent someone, one must be a lawyer. If a Judgment Enforcer is not a lawyer, they cannot assist you while you own a judgment. As a judgment owner, you can read, hire PIs, paralegals, ask your court advisor, and learn to collect your own judgment. Peter Gilboy has an excellent guide to collecting your own judgment at www.CollectFromYourDebtor.com Of course you can attempt to enforce your own judgment. If you can legally enforce it yourself (following the Rosenthal, CCPs, GLB, and the FDCPA laws) - congratulations. Contact us if it does not work out.
