How to collect a judgment in NJ- 80 % of judgments remain unsatisfied in the United States? The reason a judgment remains unsatisfied is not related to the nature of the judgment (breach of contract, unpaid child support, default of payment etc…) the reason is usually rooted in:

• Creditors are not equipped to obtain the information required to serve a successful writ of execution (bank accounts, place of employment).
• Creditors get discouraged after certain period of time and feel they are committing good money after bad in pursuit of enforcing the judgment.
• It is not difficult for debtors to find another individual to open an account for them to divert funds.

We are not implying that all judgments have the ability to be satisfied; more often than not you will not be able to get blood from a stone.  Debtors might not currently have the assets; there is a good possibility that the debtor will never have the assets to pay off the debt.  The common denominator of all judgments that have been satisfied is the ability to acquire the most up to date information concerning the debtor’s bank accounts, current assets or employer.  Most creditors have financial or employment information that is out of date, inaccurate or in some instances just here say.

How can a creditor get the edge the most recent financial or employment information on a debtor without spending a lot of money?
