What Do We Do?

The debt collection attorneys at MAYA Law Firm are serious and aggressive when it comes to collecting your unpaid debt. Below are the steps we will take to ensure the debt is paid and accounted for legally.

1. Pre-Suit Collections—our debt collection attorneys will prepare demand letters to the debtors in an attempt to settle the debt without taking legal action. Our clients benefit greatly from any pre-suit resolution as to prevent the protracted time and cost of lawsuits.

2. Lawsuits—if a demand letter does not help resolve the debt, our debt collection attorneys may file a lawsuit against the person who owes the debt. This often leads to a default judgment against the debtor and our debt collection attorneys can take the appropriate measures to collect the debt with a Court’s permission.

3. Obtaining Judgment Liens—a judgment lien can result in tax garnishments, wage garnishments, seizure of valuable property, decline in credit records, and even home foreclosures and bank account levies. If a debtor fails to respond to a debt collection attorneys Complaint, the lien will be requested.

4. Enforcing Judgment Liens—our debt collection attorneys will use creative, professional, and effective methods for enforcing any judgment liens. We will ensure that the unpaid debt is recovered. Our team will file all necessary paperwork with the Courts and execution offices in order to legally record the judgments and accurately calculate any interest that grows on that debt. We will also use electronic research methods to identify property owned by debtors to make sure that all property is accounted for and maintain follow up to see whether the debtor purchases any additional collectible property.

5. Property Seizure—when appropriate, the Court may issue an Order to Seize Property. This includes vehicles and money from a debtor. An experienced debt collection attorney can help locate all property that should be seized and coordinate with Court Officers to seize the property. Personal property must be taken first in an attempt to settle the debt. If the sale of that property is not enough to cover the debt, the collections attorney may pursue the debtors’ homes and other real property.

6. Domestication of Foreign Judgments—if you have obtained a judgment outside of the Turkiye, we can help with the complex process of domesticating the judgments, and therefore making them enforceable outside of the State or Country in which it was originally issued.

7. Confirmation of Arbitration Award—If you have participated in arbitration proceedings, the award cannot be truly enforced until that Court confirms/give the force to it. Anytime within a year of the award, one can petition the Court to ensure a judgment in put into place. This is especially important if you feel that the adverse party is not going to pay the arbitration award or has outright refused to do so. Once this judgment is entered, it is enforceable just like any other Judgment.
