80% - 85% of ALL Legal Judgments
In The USA are Never Recovered 
These Are The Main Reasons:

  •  Judgment owners, also called creditors, rarely know how to collect their own Judgments.  Enforcing (recovering) lawful court Judgments is not easy.  This work requires training, study, patience, and an aggressive nature.  Without recovery (collection, settlement) legal money Judgments expire.  They become worthless when the statute of limitations runs out.  The expiration dates vary from state to state.  Uncollected Judgments can be renewed by application for renewal sent to the original court that originally awarded the Judgment.

  •  It is only the legal owner of a Judgment award that is legally authorized to take the actions needed to attempt collection of the money owed by the defendants (now debtors) in the lawsuit. The law prevents non-owners of Court Ordered Legal Judgments from attempting to recover legal judgments that they do not own.  If you are thinking about hiring a Professional Judgment Recovery Specialist to recover you will be obliged to provide them with legal, but temporary title (ownership) of the Judgment. Any Judgment Recovery Company you work with will require that you agree to and sign and notarize "Assignment of Judgment Form".

  •  Professional judgment recovery specialists are almost always paid with an agreed percentage of the money recovered from the debtors (the people who owe you money).   Debtors are rarely ever willing to pay what they owe you.  It requires aggressive, skilled, and experienced professionals to find them, find their assets, legally seize some or all of their assets and put them in your hands where they legally belong.

  •  Ownership of a legal judgment can be "Assigned" (transferred) to another person by means of outright sale or for purposes of recovery of the judgment.  Assignment is the method used by Judgment Recovery professionals so that, as legal owners of the judgment, they may seek to recover the judgment on behalf of the original owner. 
    Remember, It is ONLY the owner of the legal judgment that has the legal authority to enforce the judgment.  This is a powerful and protective measure that is provided by US Law.
     

Which Decision Are You Prepared To Make?


Study the business of Judgment Recovery and then try recovering your judgment by yourself. This may require more than a year of study before you are ready to test your skills.  This decision could also provide you with a full or part time occupation.


Do it yourself with the guidance of a Judgment Recovery attorney.  There not many such Attorneys around that teach Judgment Recovery.   Additionally, this  can be very costly.

     
Engage the services of a Judgment Recovery Company.  There are many listed on the Internet.  Some companies work only in a specific state and others work Nationwide.  We (RecoverLegalJudgment.com) work Nationwide.

Worried About Judgment Recovery Fees? 

Concerned that your Judgment Recovery Fee (percentage) will be "too much."  Fees are usually a bit negotiable--don't worry.  Typically the larger the Judgment the smaller will be the recovery fee and the smaller the judgment the larger the recovery fee percentage.  These percentages are decided by you and the Judgment Recovery agent that you accept as the one who you will be working with.  Fee of 35% to 45% of the amount collected are quite typical.

 

Please remember:  Only the owner of the Judgment (you) is legally authorized to take the actions needed to attempt recovery of some or all of the money owed to them by their debtor(s). This means that you, the owner of the judgment, MUST sign and notarize an "Assignment of Judgment" form and send it to your Judgment Recovery Specialist. 

This form does all of the following:

  • The form specifies the exact percentage of the recovered money that is to be the fee of the Judgment Recovery Specialist.  It also specifies that ownership of the Judgment is legally transferred to the Judgment Recovery Specialist.  Ideally, it should also specify an agreed time period, in years, as the maximum that the Judgment Recovery Specialist is allowed to recover some or all of the money. 

    We recommend that 2 years be the limit, initially.  Additional recovery time can be added later if appropriate.

  •  If no money is successfully recovered from the Debtor(s) the "Assignment of Judgment" should specify that Legal Ownership of the Judgment will be returned and restored to the Original Owner. This is a "reversed assignment of judgment.
