Eighty Percent of Small Claims and Small Claims Judgments Are Not Pursued
Small Claims » Eighty Percent of Small Claims and Small Claims Judgments Are Not Pursued
This is true for so many Americans:
- Some People did you wrong
- You send them to small claims
- The court agrees in your favor
- You never see any money that is owed to you.
Although the small claim court is set up to allow you to get your money back in court, nothing in the manual says that it isn't going to hard. Civil court allows access to fairly generic information on filing wage garnishments, liens, bank garnishments and other methods of getting back what is owed to you that the courts awarded you, but the information given to you will not teach you everything you need to know. Therefore, that leaves us with only a few options:
- Be defeated by your debtors (Never see your money again)
- Spend several weeks trying to figure out how to collect your money yourself
- Hire an attorney and spend your hard earned money on a retainer plus hourly fees of hundreds per hour
- Use a judgment recovery service
Although collection agency service isn't very difficult to learn once you learn how to do it, the process can be very easy and beneficial. You would suggest that judgment is awarded to you, the court system would make it easier for you to recover the funds that are owed to you.
Civil Courts offers information packets to you explaining debtors rights. Try to ask one of the court clerks how you go about finding the debtors bank account information or the process to garnish the debtors wages, and you will find a familiar answer - 'we do not give legal advice'.
The easiest way to get all of the information about the debtor is the skip tracing technique. The process of skip tracing involves pulling a credit report on the debtor, and being a private investigator to connect all of the dots in the case. One of the hardest things a debt collector will run into is that most credit reporters won't let you pull a credit report on somebody if you do not own or operate a legitimate company that complies with FRCA laws and regulations.
If you use a debt collection service, they will recover your money with no fees out of your pocket, and no fees if your funds aren't recovered. Unlike lawyers who charge a per hour fee, whether or not they are capable to collect your fees.
We recommend letting a professional National Collection Agency handle your outstanding debts for the most effective and efficient no-upfront cost way to collect on monies owed to you.
