Description

The Debt Collector's Handbook: Collecting Debts, Finding Assets, Enforcing Judgments, and Beating Your Creditors David Julian Cook ISBN 9781627224956

Winning a court case is only half the battle—many debtors go to great lengths to hide assets and avoid paying judgments. This one-of-a-kind book shows you how to locate and access that hidden money.

Author David J. Cook, a veteran collections attorney with over 39 years of experience, is renowned for representing Ronald Goldman's father in securing the multi-million-dollar civil judgment against O.J. Simpson. Drawing on decades of hands-on experience, he offers practical guidance in a clear, often colorful style.

This book teaches the fundamentals of civil remedies, real estate, finance, and investigative techniques. It also explores the art of bluffing, the limits of legal threats, and knowing when it’s time to walk away.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Ask the right questions

  • Identify where hidden assets may be located

  • Interpret financial statements

  • Understand what to expect from a judge

  • Navigate the boundaries of legal action

  • Apply a range of investigatory techniques

Whether your goal is to collect debts, locate hidden assets, enforce judgments against challenging individuals, or even protect yourself from creditors, this book provides the tools and insights to succeed.
