Eighty Percent of Small Claims Court Cases and Civil Matters Go Uncollected
Small Claims » Eighty Percent of Small Claims Court Cases and Civil Matters Go Uncollected
This is most typical for the people of the United States:
- Somebody does you wrong
- You go to small claims or civil court
- The court decides to award you
- You don't get any compensation.
Although the small claim court is structured to allow you to receive money owed to you, nothing in the manual says that it isn't going to hard. Small claims court offers you simple information on filing wage garnishments, bank garnishments, liens, and other methods of getting back what is owed to you that you were awarded in court, but that information is too generic. Therefore, that leaves us with only a few options:
- Be defeated by your debtors (Never collect the money owed to you)
- Wasting your time trying to learn how to recover your judgment yourself
- Talk to an attorney and pay a retainer plus hourly fees of hundreds per hour
- Use a judgment recovery service
Although debt collection service isn't hard to figure out once you know how to use one, the process will save you time and money in the long run. You would suggest that once you were awarded judgment, the small claims court would make it less complicated for you to collect the funds that you are owed.
Small Claims Courts offers pamphlets to you explaining debtors rights. Try to find out information from 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 get the same answer - 'we do not give legal advice'.
The best way to get all of the information about the debtor is a process called skip tracing. The process of skip tracing involves pulling a credit report on the debtor, and playing private detective to put all of the pieces together. One of the hardest things a creditor will run into is that most credit reporters won't let you pull a credit report on someone if you don't own or operate a legitimate company that complies with FRCA laws and regulations.
If you use a collection agency service, they will recover your money with with no out-of-pocket fees, and no fees if your funds aren't recovered. Unlike attorneys 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.
