Judgment Recovery for Oregon and Florida


We will help you collect on your small claims judgement award

JLA Investment Group is a professional company dedicated to the enforcement and asset recovery of all civil judgments in Small Claims or Superior Court. You assign your judgment in its entirety, usually on a 'future pay' basis. We advance all the costs and expenses incurred in locating the judgment debtor and enforcing the judgment.We make our money only from the judgment debtor, at no direct cost to you.

The truth is - almost 80% of all judgments are never recovered. Your judgment may have been awarded by the court but enforcement is your responsibility. JLA Investment Group can succeed where you haven't! We have the resources, expertise, and determination to enforce the judgment you worked so hard to get. We will conduct a thorough investigation to uncover any assets or sources of income, and take whatever steps are necessary to legally seize them!

If you have a valid court awarded judgment of $1,000 or more, we will use every method at our disposal to recover the full amount of the unpaid judgment plus any interest that the judgment has accrued since it was issued. We will track the judgment debtor down even if he or she has moved to another state. We have access to both private and public databases that allows us to 'skip-trace' the debtor and to locate any assets that he or she may have. As allowed by law, we will garnish wages, attach bank accounts, and seize assets as necessary. If possible, we will try to do so without any notification or confrontation. In short, we will enforce the judgment that was legally and rightfully awarded to you by the courts!

We neither charge an application fee nor require you to cover any upfront expenses. We purchase the judgment from you for a percentage of anything that we are eventually able to recover from the judgment debtor. All expenses and legal costs incurred in the enforcement of the judgment are advanced by us. There is never an up-front charge of any kind! We are currently accepting judgments awarded in Oregon and Florida.

Here you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions by customers. If you don't find your answer here, please contact us.

Q: How much do I have to pay you? A: Not one cent out of your pocket.

Q: Is your service really free?A: No, we get paid part of what is collected from the debtor.

Q: My debtor has moved away. Can you still collect? A: Usually we can find your debtor and collect.

Q: Do you need all of my court papers? A: No. We just need the name of the court where you sued and either the case number or case title (plaintiff name vs. defendant name)

Q: My debtor has filed bankruptcy. Doesn't that mean I won't get paid? A: Not necessarily. Phone us right away with your case number. We can quickly lookup the status of the bankruptcy case at no cost to you.

Q: My debtor is deceased. Can you still collect? A: Sometimes. Phone us right away to see if this is possible for your case.

Q: My debtor is in prison. Can you still collect? A: Only if we can find where he stashed the loot.

Q: How do you find my debtor? A: We use skip tracing techniques that we prefer to keep secret, (your debtor might be reading this). We are allowed to access proprietary databases that are used by law enforcement and investigative agencies. This information is not available to the general public. One of our sources was used by a government agency to locate terrorist suspects in Florida.

Q: Do I have to contact my debtor again? A: No, we handle all communications with your debtor.

Q: Do I have to go to court again? A: No, we handle all post-judgment court filings and appearances.

Q: Do you guarantee to collect my judgment? A: No, but we promise to try hard and to use every means available. Some debtors truly have no assets and have no income that can be seized. If nothing can be collected, we lose our legal expenses and the time and effort expended trying to collect. You risk nothing.

Q: I would like to keep trying to collect for myself. Can you assist me? A: Sorry, but no. You are asking us to provide legal advice and that would be against the law.

Q: Who else can help me collect my judgment? A: You might try a collection agency but most collection agencies are not willing to spend the time and resources necessary to effectively enforce a judgment. Both attorneys and private investigators can collect judgments. They will usually charge an advance fee and an hourly rate even if they do not collect. We do not charge any upfront fee or any hourly rate.

Q: My case has been a big headache. Can you do anything about that? A: Knowing your debtor is being made to pay up might ease your pain better than aspirin.
