I sued a car wash business because they damaged my car. They never showed so I received a default judgment. This was about 2 years ago. I was told that I needed to hire a private investigator to find out what bank they used and to obain their bank account number, or find out their licence plate numbers, etc. They are still in business, but I never pursued getting my money because I figured it would cost me more than it was worth. The judgment was for about $600. Is there anything I can do now? This happened to my dad a while ago and he never pursued it either. Years later when the person he was dealing with tried to apply for a loan and buy a home, my dad was sent a check in the mail. Is it ever too late?

How can I collect my money from a default judgment in small claims court?You could either levy their bank accounts or do a till tap...those cost $$$ and you probably wouldn't get much back. I think the till tap is the most expensive so I wouldn't go that route...you could try to levy upon an account but you need to find the account first. Good luck.
