The person seeking the recovery of money owed must file a lawsuit in the proper court of venue. If they win they will be awarded a writ of judgment which in most states can be used to garnish the debtor/defendant's bank account. Be advised that in many states a judgment cannot be enforced against marital and/or joint accounts. If the winning plaintiff tries to execute the judgment against any exempt property owned only by the debtor or jointly owned he/she may end up on the "wrong side" of a lawsuit.
