Judgment enforcement is the legal process used to collect money after a court has ruled in your favor.
Methods include writs of execution, wage garnishment, bank levies and liens on property, depending on assets and applicable law.
A judgment is a court order confirming that one party owes money to another. Enforcement actions follow to collect the amount owed, subject to state and federal limits.
Typical steps include documenting the judgment, locating assets, obtaining enforcement orders, notifying the debtor, and collecting funds in accordance with the court rules.
