About Us
MA Judgment Enforcement & Recovery was established in 1928. Our initial purpose was to:

2. develop a certification program and code of ethics for the MA judgment recovery industry;
3. increase the credibility of members by providing their customers with the ability of resolving disputes through a third party;
4. obtain discounted investigative services through the combined strength of our membership;
5. enable entrepreneurs desiring to enter the business of judicial judgment recovery with a method of learning the business from other well-established professionals;
6. develop and distribute proprietary software for use by members in perfecting their practice;
7. provide members with a means of effectively promoting their judgment recovery business on a nationwide basis;
8. create professional standards within the industry.
Frequently Asked Questions?
How difficult is it to locate customers and obtain judgments?
You will be surprised at how easy it is to become overwhelmed with business. Most judgment enforcement & recovery professionals have to limit the number of cases they actually accept.
Why wouldn't a judgment owner enforce his own judgment?
Most judgment creditors simply don't know how. Then, there are the problems associated with tracking the debtor, locating assets, etc.
Couldn't he hire an attorney?
Sure, if he wants to pay a retainer, and a fee of between $200 and $300 per hour. Using our services, you have no out of pocket costs whatsoever.
On what percentage of the cases I accept, can I actually expect to collect?
That will depend on the size of the judgments and the criteria you place on your acceptance. 50% is a realistic figure for the experienced judgment recovery professional.
Why can't I contact you by telephone with questions about membership?
All MAJER Staff members are volunteers who actually operate their own judgment enforcement & recovery business. With hundreds of inquiries per week, staff members simply don't have the time or resources to respond by telephone. Creating a staff to do so would force an increase in our membership fee which we have pledged to "avoid". Questions addressed by email are automatically routed to the staff member best qualified to respond. All emails are promptly answered! It is your understanding and cooperation that helps keep our membership fee at a minimum.
Is this business dangerous?
No. You never even have to confront the debtor. Your investigations can be conducted in covert fashion. The debtor doesn't even have to know you are on his trail. There is absolutely no danger involved!
Where does the "80% of judgments remain uncollected" figure actually come from?
Figures come from a comprehensive and well researched report entitled "The Kaulkin Report" produced by the Kaulkin Ginsberg Company, a national advisory service to the collection industry
Does judgment enforcement & recovery require a great deal of knowledge of the legal system?
No. The MAJER manual provides you with all the basics. Your knowledge of the legal system will increase with experience. Most judgment recovery specialists are neither attorneys nor paralegals.
Is there a lot of competition in this business?
Absolutely not! Judgment Enforcement & Recovery is a relatively new field. It is very likely that you will encounter little, if any competition at all! Should there be other judgment enforcement & recovery specialists in your area, there is still plenty of business to go around. Click here to open a new window and see just how many unsatisfied judgments are available right now in your state!
Can I work part time?
Sure, by limiting the number of cases that you accept based on the time that you have available.
Is there any special license required for judgment enforcement & recovery?
There is no professional license specifically for the business of judgment recovery but some states require businesses to register their business name. Information on licensing and name registration is covered in the MAJER Judgment Enforcement Manual.
Is judgment enforcement & recovery legal in my state?
Judgment recovery and the transfer of ownership is legal in all states, and over the years Moorish American Judgment Network has had members from all 50 states and Canada. Due to the opinion of certain State Bar Associations, there are a handful of states less accommodating than the majority.
NOTE: Colorado- The State of Colorado has taken the position that individuals involved in the business of judgment recovery must be licensed as collection agencies. Before making the decision to enter this business, Colorado residents should investigate the requirements for becoming a licensed collection agency. (WE ARE NOT A COLLECTION AGENCY) we enforce!
Can I enforce Canadian judgments?
Sure. The legal systems in Canada and the U.S. are very similar. While the MAJER website caters more to the U.S. judgment enforcement professional, we have a number of Canadian members. Our Post-Judgment Interest Calculator and Judgment Enforcement Database are even configured to compute post-judgment interest for Canada.
Couldn't I enter this business on my own without becoming a MAJER National Judgment Network member?
It may be possible, but you would have a tremendous amount to learn on your own. The MAJER manual will provide you with all the necessary forms, agreements, and information needed to become successful as quickly as possible. The MAJER manual has been compiled from the lessons learned from hundreds of actual judgment enforcement & recovery cases. And, as a member, you will have the support and assistance of successful judgment enforcement & recovery professionals located throughout the U.S.A.
Does the MAJER program include information on the FDCPA (Fair Debt Collection Practices Act)?
Absolutely! You will not only have access to the complete text of the FDCPA but discussions on which parts of the act are applicable to the business of judgment enforcement & recovery.
Can I obtain help if I encounter difficulties?
Certainly! Not only can you obtain help from MAJER National Judgment Network but you can obtain the assistance of other successful judgment enforcement & recovery professionals throughout the U.S.A.. You will even have access to the MAJER Discussion Forum where members share their knowledge and information. And, there are no time limits on obtaining assistance, as there are with other judgment enforcement & recovery programs.
Why don't you offer telephone support?
Telephone support is greatly overrated! If you call a company headquartered in California and ask about the process of filing a bank garnishment in Georgia, you are going to be told to visit the courthouse or contact a local attorney. Why? Because the individual in California can't possibly know the rules and requirements for every jurisdiction in the U.S.A.. With MAJER National Judgment Network's online support, you will receive an answer from another judgment enforcement & recovery professional who does business in Georgia and files bank garnishments on a routine basis. You won't get true support over the telephone.
How long will my membership be valid?
Your membership is a lifetime membership! - No annual or hidden fees! No Dues.
Can you tell me more about the Case Management Database?
The MAJER Case Management Database is part of the MAJER Online Office Center. It is available to National Judgment Network members for just the cost of hosting, which is an unbelievably low $25 per year! The MAJER Online Office Center alone is well worth the cost of membership and you won't find anything like it anywhere else. The closest program you will find costs a whopping $1250 and is nowhere near as sophisticated as the free MAJER National Judgment Network program! You can learn more about the program "demo" it by membership.
Can I obtain the Case Management Database without becoming a member of National Judgment Network?
Yes, National Judgment Network now offers a version of our Online Office Center that is available to all judgment enforcement & recovery professionals for just $52 per year. This version of the program differes slightly from the version provided to registered MAJER members but it is fully functional and extremely powerful!
All I want is access to the MAJER Post-Judgment Interest Calculator?
Not a problem. You may register to use the MAJER Post-Judgment Interest Calculator for just $25 per year without joining MAJER National Judgment Network.
Is the training received through MAJER National Judgment Network as comprehensive as that available from other sources?
Don't let the cost fool you! The MAJER manual will provide you with everything needed to enter the judgment enforcement & recovery profession, and do so for a lot less than any other program available. It also guarantees you the support and assistance of MAJER National Judgment Network and its members. Your membership in MAJER National Judgment Network assures you that you will never be alone!
Tell me more about the MAJER Judgment Enforcement Manual?
The MAJER Enforcement Manual is a complete training package designed to give the new judgment enforcement & recovery professional all the knowledge needed to enter and become successful in the judgment enforcement profession. It may be viewed online or downloaded in PDF format and is available to all members at no cost. The manual is over 400 full-size pages, containing state-specific information and tutorials on everything from "asset discovery" to "fraudulent conveyance" to "uniform commercial code" to "nationality". Because it is written in e-book format it can quickly and easily be revised on a regular basis, making it the most up-to-date source of information available anywhere. The manual can even be printed on your own printer if desired. Providing our members with alternatives is just one way we keep our costs down and our membership fee low.
How often is the MAJER Judgment Enforcement Manual updated?
The manual is completely reviewed and revised as necessary on at least a tri monthly basis. You will always have access to the most current information available.
Is National Judgment Network a member of the Better Business Bureau?
No. Membership in the Better Business Bureau means one thing - that the business has paid their membership dues. The BBB actually derives its income from the very businesses they are supposed to monitor. We don't feel the benefits of displaying the BBB seal justify the expense of membership.
Are there any guarantees?
Only you can guarantee your success in the business of judgment recovery, or any other business. However, we will guarantee to provide you with all the Right knowledge and information necessary to become successful.
1. create a network in which MA judgment recovery professionals could share information for the benefit of all members;
