Judgment sales for attorneys and their clients
Litigation attorneys regularly see clients who won in court and walked away with a judgment they can’t collect. Contingency enforcement is expensive, slow, and not always available. Judgment buyers offer an alternative — a lump sum now, with no further client involvement required.
We work with attorneys directly. You can submit a client’s judgment for evaluation, receive our offer, and advise your client on whether to accept. The assignment of judgment is a standard two-page California form — straightforward to review.
What qualifies
We evaluate California commercial judgments in this category including:
- Commercial contract breach judgments — B2B disputes where your client won a money judgment.
- Commercial lease default judgments — Landlord clients with commercial tenant judgments.
- Contractor and construction judgments — Your contractor or developer client who won and hasn’t collected.
- Business fraud and conversion judgments — Intentional tort judgments in commercial cases.
- Commercial loan default judgments — Lender clients holding judgments on defaulted commercial loans.
Minimum face value: $10,000. California superior court commercial judgments only.
Working with attorneys
If you represent a judgment creditor, we work directly with counsel. You can submit on behalf of your client, receive our offer, and advise them on whether to accept. We’re familiar with assignment of judgment documentation and can work within whatever process your client relationship requires.
Referral arrangement: If you regularly encounter clients with judgments that fall outside what you handle, we’re open to a referral relationship. Contact us to discuss.
FAQ
Do you pay referral fees to attorneys?
We don’t pay referral fees — that creates State Bar compliance issues. We work with attorneys as part of the sale process on behalf of their clients. If you have clients with judgments that fit our criteria, contact us to discuss how we work with counsel.
Can we submit on behalf of a client without disclosing the purchase price to them first?
We give the offer directly to whoever submits the evaluation. How you present it to your client is between you and them. We don’t contact the judgment holder directly without your instruction if you’ve made clear you’re submitting on their behalf.
My client’s judgment is on appeal. Can you evaluate it?
We don’t purchase judgments that are actively on appeal. Once the appeal is resolved and the judgment is final, submit it for evaluation.
We have a judgment lien on real property already. Does that change the analysis?
Significantly yes — in your favor. A recorded abstract of judgment creating a lien on real property means the debt gets paid when the property sells or refinances. Real property collateral increases the value of the judgment substantially.
