A charging order is a court order that directs distributions from a debtor’s LLC or partnership interest to a creditor until the debt is resolved. It does not transfer ownership, but it controls profits until payment is made. In California, this remedy helps a creditor access funds while the underlying dispute is resolved. Understanding the specifics of your ownership and distributions is essential to determine eligibility and strategy.
Any creditor with a valid judgment may seek a charging order against an LLC or partnership interest, depending on the debtor’s ownership structure. The process typically involves showing a rightful claim to distributions and filing in the proper court. An experienced attorney can help assess whether a charging order is appropriate given the facts of your case.
