In many situations, one of the best ways to collect a judgment after winning a case is to put a lien on the debtor's property. This gives you a claim to the property and, in some cases, the property will be sold at public auction in order to satisfy the debt that is owed.
How long does a judgment lien last in Montana? A judgment lien in Montana will remain attached to the debtor's property (even if the property changes hands) for ten years.
A simple way to collect a judgment is by deducting money out of the debtor's paycheck using a wage garnishment. The debtor must have a decent income because both the federal government and states cap the amount you can take, and certain types of income, like Social Security, are off-limits.
Do not use illegal ways to collect your money. Encourage the debtor to pay you voluntarily. Be organized. Ask a lawyer or collection agency for help. Make sure you renew your judgment. Ask the court for help.
