Big result. Long road. Worth it.

We just secured a **$435,100 recovery** in a judgment enforcement matter that has been active with our office since 2010.

This wasn’t a quick win — it was a strategic, long-term effort. About six months ago, we recovered **$2.4 million from a co-judgment debtor. That changed the landscape. The remaining defendant went from offering $70,000 to ultimately resolving the case for over **$435,000**.

Total recovery on this judgment: **approximately $2.8 million+**

A key component of this result involved navigating and leveraging **complex Florida homestead issues**, including:

• Timing of homestead attachment vs. judgment lien priority
• Whether a property under construction qualified as a homestead
• Claims of temporary absence and intent to establish residency
• Tracing and treatment of alleged homestead sale proceeds
• Assertions of equitable or beneficial ownership in a prior marital home

These issues are often misunderstood — but when properly analyzed and applied, they can significantly impact leverage and outcome.

We handle matters like this on a contingency basis — meaning our interests are fully aligned with our clients: we only get paid when we recover.

What this case reinforces:

• Judgments don’t expire in value — they require the right strategy
• Timing and leverage matter more than speed
• Early low offers rarely reflect true exposure
• Persistence pays — sometimes years later

At our firm, we focus on one thing: maximizing recovery for judgment creditors.

Because a judgment is only valuable if it’s enforced.
