What Is Judgment Recovery?

Sandra Kimbrough • April 9, 2025

Collecting on a Lawsuit

Winning a lawsuit is only the first step—collecting the money you're owed is often the real challenge. That’s where judgment recovery comes in.

Judgment recovery is the process of locating and collecting funds that have been awarded to you by a court judgment. If someone owes you money and hasn’t paid after a court ruling, you have the legal right to enforce that judgment—and Swan Legal Services LLC can help.


Why Judgment Recovery Matters

Even with a court order in hand, many debtors don’t voluntarily pay what they owe. They may hide assets, move frequently, or avoid communication altogether. Our job is to find legal ways to collect that judgment on your behalf.


How Does It Work?

Judgment recovery typically involves:

  • Locating the debtor (skip tracing)
  • Identifying assets (bank accounts, property, employment, etc.)
  • Enforcing the judgment through legal channels such as:
  • Wage garnishments
  • Bank levies
  • Property liens
  • Asset seizures (in accordance with state laws)


Why Work With a Professional?

Recovering a judgment requires knowledge of collection laws, investigative techniques, and legal procedures. At Swan Legal Services LLC, we help clients enforce judgments in a legal, ethical, and effective manner—especially when the debtor is difficult to locate or unwilling to cooperate.
