Want the step‑by‑step on garnishments, bank levies and liens? Learn more ›
In Massachusetts, you can collect up to 15 % of a debtor’s gross wages until your judgment is paid. We file a separate lawsuit naming the employer as a trustee defendant and obtain a court order so wages flow directly to you.
We sue the debtor’s bank as trustee defendant. Once the levy order is issued, funds (minus the protected first $2,500) are transferred to you. Investment accounts can be reached the same way.
If the debtor owns property, we record a lien—even against a homestead—so you’re first in line when the property sells or refinances.
For corporate debtors, we can have a receiver appointed under M.G.L. ch. 156 § 51 to seize and liquidate assets for the benefit of creditors.
Not sure where the assets are? We compel the debtor to appear, testify under oath, and produce bank statements, tax returns, or P&L statements. That intel fuels targeted levies.
