Judgment Domestication

We provide judgment collection domestication and enforcement services for creditors throughout the world who have judgment debtors located in California.

GP&A facilitates the process of domestication of foreign and domestic judgments for our clients.

The process of domesticating a foreign judgment can seem intimidating, but GP&A streamlines the process, quickly and efficiently.

We handle the minutia to allow you to make the judgments you have been awarded a reality.

The GP&A Way
To enable enforcement, judgments must first be domesticated to a state or country where either the debtor resides or owns property. If you possess a foreign judgment, and the debtor subject to that judgment – or the debtor’s assets – are in California, GP&A has the ability to make that judgment enforceable in California.
Complexity Made Easy

Without following the appropriate procedures and properly domesticating a foreign judgment, that judgment is ineffectual. Our team of experts makes a judgment that exists on paper enforceable by facilitating the domestication process. By leveraging our experience and knowledge of the California legal process, we ensure that your underlying claim or judgment is satisfied as quickly as the legal system will allow.
