Discovery

Debtor Examinations and Post-Judgment Discovery

Discovery is the one tool that makes the debtor do the work. Used properly it is also the fastest route to a contempt remedy when they refuse.

  • Fact information sheet review and gap analysis
  • Targeted question sets for the examination
  • Third-party subpoena targeting
  • Cross-checking sworn answers against records
  • Documentation to support a motion to compel

The Mechanism

The tool that makes the debtor do the work

Every other method here researches around the debtor. Post-judgment discovery goes through them: it compels disclosure of assets under oath, on penalty of contempt.

Used carelessly it produces a form full of blanks and a wasted hearing. Used properly it produces either a usable asset disclosure or a refusal that hands you a contempt remedy. Both are progress; a vague questionnaire is not.

The instruments

  • Fact information sheetFlorida Rule 1.977, sworn, attached to most final judgments
  • Debtor examinationTestimony under oath, with document production
  • Third-party subpoenasBanks, employers and accountants, who answer accurately
  • InterrogatoriesWritten answers under oath, useful for building a record

Sequence

Research first, then discovery

1

Research before you examine

Walking into an examination knowing nothing means accepting whatever you are told. Knowing the answers first is what makes the exam work.

2

Serve the fact information sheet

Where the judgment includes one, this is the cheapest first move. Non-compliance is itself sanctionable.

3

Examine against the record

Ask questions you already know the answer to. Inconsistency under oath is leverage.

4

Subpoena the third parties

Institutions answer accurately and without the debtor’s editing.

FAQ

Discovery questions

The Fact Information Sheet under Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.977. It requires the debtor to disclose employment, accounts, property and interests under oath, and most Florida final judgments already order its completion.

Non-compliance with a court order to complete it is contempt. In practice the threat of that remedy produces more disclosures than the form itself.

Yes. Third parties who hold the debtor’s assets or know about them can generally be examined or subpoenaed, subject to your jurisdiction’s rules.

It is often exactly when it is worth doing, provided you have researched first. A sworn denial that records contradict is far more useful to you than silence.

No. We prepare the research, the questions and the document schedule. Conducting the examination is legal work for your attorney.

The report

Judgment Collectability & Asset Report $270

A bounded, debtor-specific research product covering one final judgment and one debtor — an individual or a business. You get a written picture of what that debtor appears to own and whether pursuing them is worth your time.

What the report covers

  • Public-record asset and collectability research
  • Identifiable real property
  • Business interests and affiliated entities
  • UCC filings and recorded liens
  • Relevant litigation and bankruptcy indicators
  • Known addresses and employment indicators where lawfully available
  • Written findings identifying potential collection targets for further investigation

What it does not do

  • No guaranteed bank-account discovery
  • No guaranteed recovery
  • No representation that every identified asset is legally reachable
  • No legal advice
  • No enforcement filing or attorney service included
  • Additional debtors or unusually complex investigations may require a separate quote

How it works

  1. Send the request below with your judgment and debtor details.
  2. We review it and confirm the scope with you — including whether your matter needs a separate quote.
  3. We send a Stripe invoice. Work begins once it is paid.
  4. Findings are typically delivered within three business days after payment and receipt of sufficient identifying information.

This is research, not legal advice, and it is not an enforcement or attorney service. Nothing here guarantees recovery.
