I freely acknowledge that self promotion on a blog is not appreciated by readers. However, I have decided to break that rule this time because it is important for attorneys and client to know when a collection attorney’s services are necessary.
We just collected a $192,000 judgment that we received in April 2006. The judgment was obtained by other attorneys who were not collection attorneys, back in 2004. These other attorneys employed the most basic collection procedures which did not yield any results for the client. The client got frustrated and brought the judgment to us. We located assets of the debtor including stock in a family held business and have collected this judgment.
The moral of the story to other attorneys – Turn those judgments that you cannot collect over to a collection attorney. Everyone, especially the client, benefits from turning an otherwise uncollectible judgment over to a collection attorney.
