Collections, and understanding the collections process, is a critical part of litigation for two primary reasons. First, knowing that the defendant is collectable (that is, able to pay the debt) may determine whether a lawsuit should even be filed. Second, once a judgment is obtained requiring the defendant to pay, the litigation may not end, as now legal processes may be necessary to secure payment of that judgment.
Our attorneys have handled a broad range of collection matters. tour goal is to use that experience to bring value to the litigation process, including impacting decisions as to whether to sue, who to sue, and ultimately how to collect payment once the case is won.
Our collection experience includes the following:
- Break orders
- Creditor representation
- Debtor representation
- Domestication of out-of-state and foreign judgments
- Garnishments
- Post-judgment discovery
- Prejudgment attachments
- Replevins
- Small claims
- Worthless checks
- Writs of execution
Examples of our representative experiences in this area are available here.
