Disputes & Litigation
Debt Collection & Judgment Enforcement
Pursuing unpaid debts and enforcing court judgments, and defending collection claims.
Overview
What this involves
Winning a judgment does not by itself put money in your account. Collecting from a debtor who will not pay takes a separate set of steps. Debtors, too, need advice when a collector or creditor starts proceedings against them.
KMC Justice represents creditors who are owed money and individuals and businesses who face collection claims.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
What happens after I win a judgment?
Enforcement steps, such as restraining a bank account, may follow. The options depend on where the debtor's assets are.
I was served with a collection lawsuit. What should I do?
Do not ignore it. Deadlines to respond are short, and failing to respond can lead to a judgment against you.
Are debt collectors allowed to call me at any time?
Federal and state law set limits on collector conduct. If you believe those limits were crossed, contact us.
