Judgment enforcement is the legal process used to compel payment when a court has ordered it. It may involve various tools to locate assets and collect funds in a manner permitted by law.
Core steps include identifying debtor assets, obtaining enforcement orders, issuing notices, and pursuing collection methods that comply with state law and court rules.
Below are common terms related to judgment enforcement in California and Bellflower.
A writ of execution is a court order directing enforcement officers to seize assets or funds to satisfy a judgment.
A garnishment is a process by which a portion of the debtor’s wages is withheld to satisfy a judgment.
A bank levy freezes funds in the debtor’s bank account and enables the seizure of money to satisfy the judgment.
