The Enforcement of a Domestic Judgment - Live at Your Desk

Introduction

You have obtained a judgment, but the judgment debtor either will not pay or claims that they cannot pay what is due. You want to investigate the true situation. Which productive steps can you take to help your client enforce the judgment? Which steps would waste more money?

Using case study examples, this virtual classroom seminar will help you work out the best options for your client.
