FAQ
In a debt collection lawsuit, a judgment is a court order that allows the debt collector to use stronger tools, like garnishment, to collect the debt. A judgment is an official result of a lawsuit in court.
Most creditors will file the release of judgment within 30-60 after you finish paying them. What if I need the judgment released immediately (“I'm supposed to close next week!”)? You can ask them to give you the release sooner. They might do it; they might not.
