Can a small claims court judgment seize you bank account?
Yes, a small claims court judgment can lead to the seizure of funds from your bank account. If a creditor wins a judgment against you in small claims court, they may seek a garnishment order, which allows them to take money directly from your bank account to satisfy the debt. However, certain protections and exemptions may apply, depending on your jurisdiction and the specific circumstances of the case. It’s important to be aware of your rights and consult legal advice if necessary.
How do you get your money that's owed?
Here is what you do. Write a letter requesting payment. Put a deadline in the letter. Make it reasonable time frame. State in the letter you will take them to small claims court if you don't get payment. Send the letter registered mail. When they don't pay go to your local courts and file a small claims suit. They will be served, given a court date. Make sure when you go to court you take your evidence with you.

You can take a creditor or a listed party on a credit report to court for not removing notice on your report if, that account is paid off, seven (or ten in the event of a judgment) years has elapsed from the date of last payment, and thirty days have passed since you requested the account be pulled in writing, by registered mail. All three of these must occur before you should take any creditor or reporting agency to court. Small claims would be a waste of time considering the sizable payouts that can be recovered for unfair and fraudulent reportings.

Dont worry if he dosent sign it just make sure you have his correct home address. Donot accept partial payment. DO NOT ACCEPT A CHECK. CASH OR MONEY ORDER ONLY. IN FULL> if he does not pay in 30 days file a small claims lawsuit against him in the local court nearest to his address. call the small claims court and ask questions. its easy simple and hopefully you will get your money. If you win hire a collection agency to collect your money. GOOD LUCK! JUDE KAGABINES LEXINGTON SC
