Judgment Enforcement

Securing a judgment in your favor is usually just the beginning. Unfortunately, the law places no obligation on judgment debtors to satisfy their judgments. Instead, creditors must actively pursue claims via special out-of-court or in-court procedures. These procedures are complex and differ from ordinary litigation, so many attorneys don’t even know they exist. Ignorance of these procedures will diminish your chances of enforcement.

Hunter Herman PLLC offers clients premier judgment enforcement and collection services. The firm has successfully secured payment for obligations by seeking payment through unique forms of property, such as minority interests in companies and corporations, out-of-state or fraudulently transferred assets, and future receivables. Hunter Herman PLLC distinguishes itself in the judgment-enforcement field by offering clients a tailored, case-specific approach that fits the facts and circumstances of each particular matter.
