A Sister State Judgment is a Judgment entered in a court that is outside of California.  Out of State Judgments can be enforced under the California version of the Uniform Enforcement of Sister State Judgments Act. If you already have a court issued Judgment from another State that hasn’t been collected and the Debtor or the Debtor’s assets are in California, we know how to enforce that Judgment and get your money.  We use all the legal remedies the law allows to collect your money.  We move fast and aggressively. The procedure to enforce a Sister State Judgment is quick and easy.  You don’t have to re-prove your case.  We file an “authenticated” copy of the Sister State Judgment with the California court, serve a notice and 30 days later we can start efforts at enforcement.

We effectively service clients who have cases between $7,500 and $2,000,000.  We are a quality law firm, not a collection agency or a mill operation.  We Sue!  We don’t send whiny letters and don’t usually even contact the debtors before we start the lawsuit unless required by law.  We don’t make repetitive phone calls and have no phone collectors.

Most cases involving sales of goods or services have some form of written documentation. This can include email, contracts, correspondence, invoices, billings, a statement of the account or admissions of the debt. These are the documents which we present to the court, together with the testimony of the witnesses, that win your case.

We have a full staff of qualified and experienced Lawyers and Legal Assistants.  We use all the legal remedies the law allows to collect your money.  We move fast and aggressively.  

We offer a choice between contingent fees (a percentage) or hourly fees (charge by the hour).  See our FAQ page on which is right for you and how to make the choice.  

We recover more money, more often than other attorneys or collectors.  If you are a contingent fee client and we don’t recover, there is no fee.  The out of pocket filing fees for the court enforcement documents, motions, hearings and liens and the fee for the process servers are generally small.  See our FAQ pages concerning Costs.
