The
Facts About Legal Judgments
The spelling of the word Judgment varies. You will see it
as "Judgement" and also as "Judgment."
The spelling "judgment" is found in the Authorized Version
of the Bible. However, the spelling Judgement (with e added) largely
replaced judgment in the United Kingdom in a non-legal
context. In the context of the law, however, judgment is preferred.
In the U.S. the spelling "judgment" prevails.
A Judgment is a ruling, a decision, an official finding made by
a civil court. It is the result of the trial of a lawsuit.
A final judgment is the court's final ruling and often provides
a money award to the winning party of the dispute that is at the
heart of the lawsuit. We work to enforce, collect, recover,
retrieve, salvage, repossess the money award that is rightfully
yours by court decree.
You,
as the lawful owner of a Legal Judgment, have the right to offer
your judgment for sale or to make efforts to legally enforce and
recover (collect) the debt from the debtor(s) specified in the
Judgment Please note that we do not buy judgments.
Judgment
owners may try to enforce or settle the Judgment on their own.
When successful either enforcement or settlement both typically
result in the collection of less than the full dollar
amount of the Judgment. Settling a judgment is often much
faster than enforcing it. Few people,
other than professional Judgment Recovery Professionals have
the resources, knowledge, training and skills to be successful
as regards enforcement or settling.
Owners of
Legal Judgments also have the option of offering their Judgments
for sale to Legal Judgment Professionals. Sales
of Legal Judgments transfer all ownership rights of the Judgments
to the new owner. The sale prices of such Legal Judgments
are negotiated between the seller and the prospective buyer.
The sale prices are typically a small fraction of the dollar
amount of the actual Legal Judgment.
Judgment recovery or collection refers to the legal collection
or seizing or of a monetary judgment awarded by the court.
Such judgments are awarded many thousands of times every
year, but the money is rarely
paid by the debtors. About 85% of all legal claims are never
collected. For
85% of the "winners" there are
no actual winnings at all. In other
words, 85% of money judgment winners are really losers.
It is clear that this does not have to be the way it is for your
judgment, but it is very probable. Judgment recovery efforts
must be at least partially successful. It's nearly impossible
to do this without professional help.
Someone must retrieve, must "rescue"
the money from the possession of the debtor, the loser of the
lawsuit. Some or all of the monetary award must be recovered
in order for the final court judgment to actually be implemented.
Here, on this web site, you can learn what you can do to have
good chance at actually recovering the judgment that you were
awarded when you won your lawsuit.

About Legal Judgments

for you. The percentage is based on our evaluation of your
specific case and the amount of court award. Remember about
80 to 85% of all legal judgments are NEVER collected. Without

What is it to "domesticate
a judgment?"
Domesticating a Judgment means this:
Judgment
Domestication is the process, the legal procedures, the acts involved
in making legal judgments enforceable in states other than where the
lawsuit was. A domesticated judgment will then have the same
"teeth" as it does in it's original "home" state.
If the debtor and his assets resides in the same state where the legal
judgment was ordered (won, decreed) the process of domestication is
not necessary. If the debtor (the person who owes you money)
resides outside of the state where the legal Judgment was ordered
then the judgment must be "domesticated" in the legal
system (courts) of the state where the debtor resides.
There are 3 States that
are currently major exceptions to the
ease of domesticating judgments. All of the other States
have adopted the Uniform Enforcement of Foreign Judgments Act (UEFJA).
UEFJA allows the creditor to obtain an effective judgment in a different
state by just filing proof of their judgment, providing the last known
address of the debtor and creditor and paying the correct filing fees.
This is quicker and more cost effective than filing a separate action.
Most states, including the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin
Islands, have adopted UEFJA; only Indiana, Massachusetts
and Vermont have not. Each jurisdiction may have different
requirements as to the actual papers that are filed. The point
here is that creditors, Judgment Owners, from "foreign"
States can be required to start their lawsuit all over again if the
debtors and/or their assets are located in Indiana, Massachusetts
and Vermont.
The domestication process
can vary a lot from state to state. An experienced professional
knows exactly how to get this done. For a legal judgment to
be enforceable in the home state of the debtor the judgment MUST be
domesticated within the home state of the debtor. There are
no exceptions to this. The ordinary domestication process often
takes at least a month to be completed providing all of your paperwork
is in order. We work hard. You sit back and wait for report
updates from your Judgment Recovery Agent or call or email him/her
from time to time and request a verbal or email status report be provided
to you.

about Judgment Domestication
When
Is Domestication Not Needed?
If your
debtor is in the same state as the judgment then domestication is
not required because the Judgment IS domestic. A minor benefit
with domestic judgments is that they will move at least 30 days
faster then non-domestic judgments. Some domestication situations
can be costly, but necessary expense.
As your
legal representative in the matter of enforcing your legal judgment
your Judgment Recovery Pro will thoroughly research the background
and facts about your debtor. We will locate his assets, hidden
assets, employment, credit worthiness, and much more. We are
not private detectives, but we perform many of their responsibilities
on behalf of our clients.
Debtor
Threatening To Declare Bankruptcy?
Bankruptcy
is a legally declared inability or impairment of ability of an individual
or organizations to pay their creditors. Creditors may file a bankruptcy
petition against a debtor ("involuntary bankruptcy") in
an effort to recover a portion of what they are owed. In the majority
of cases, however, bankruptcy is initiated by the debtor (a "voluntary
bankruptcy" that is filed by the bankrupt individual or organization).
Debtors sometimes threaten
to file bankruptcy as a ploy, a manipulative method, used as a
means to encourage the creditor to settle for a lower amount at
some point in the future. Some debtors who CAN afford to
pay their creditors will choose file for bankruptcy in "bad
faith". Bad faith bankruptcy applications can sometimes
be blocked or rejected by the courts. This can add a lot
of time to the completion of the collection process and the receipt
of your long awaited financial Judgment award. Do you have
the skills, time and resources to deal with your debtor's bankruptcy
filing? Note that if the debtor DOES file for bankruptcy
neither you or your representatives are legally allowed to attempt
to collect your judgment. If the bankruptcy filing is approved
it will be virtually impossible for you to collect.
Some creditors (Judgment
Winners) have been able to have attempted bankruptcy filings thrown
out based on "bad faith" or other legitimate causes.
