If you have a judgement from small claims against a business can you garnish tax or put a lien on them?

If you have a judgment against a business you can attempt to attach their bank account(s).

If available in your state, you also have another possible remedy if they are a retail business that does a lot of cash business, called a "Till Tap". This is where you can have an officer, generally a Sheriff Deputy or State Trouper go to one of the retail locations. The officer would remain for a set amount of time and ALL money that comes in cash or check goes toward this "tap". There are fees involved in this, but is very often a very effective way to get it done. Not only that even having the "threat" of an officer standing in your store for an entire day in front of customers is generally not seen as good for business. So you may find once you threaten this the judgment gets paid off pretty quickly.

There are a few things you can do with judgments on businesses- depending on your state of course. You can levy their bank account. some states you do not even have to have the account number (anymore) just the bank. If the business owns property you can put a lien on their property. To find out who owns the property call the city assessor's office.

Good Luck.
