A charging order restricts the debtor LLC or partnership interest holder’s right to receive distributions pending collection by a creditor.
We help you understand when this remedy applies, the steps to pursue it, and how California law shapes outcomes.
A charging order is a court directive that directs distributions to be paid to a creditor instead of the debtor. It does not transfer ownership; it preserves ownership while prioritizing creditor rights.
Key steps include identifying the debtor LLC or partnership interests, obtaining a charging order from the court, and managing distributions to satisfy the judgment while protecting other members rights.
