Training

National Judgment Network comprises judgment recovery professionals located throughout the United States who have agreed to assist one another in the enforcement of judicial judgments. We have compiled a comprehensive manual to educate new enforcement specialists in the field of judgment recovery. The NJN manual provides training on how to:

  • easily locate unsatisfied judicial judgments,
  • have the judgment legally transferred to you,
  • run a “skip trace” to locate the debtor,
  • conduct an “asset search” to uncover his assets,
  • and use the court system to enforce payment.

Is it legal? Absolutely! Isn’t it practicing law without a license? Absolutely not! Once the judgment has been legally assigned, making you the owner of the judgment, you can legally represent yourself in the process of enforcement. And, as an owner of the judgment, you have access to all legal remedies of the court at your disposal. Depending on your state, you may be able to garnish wages, attach bank accounts, place real estate liens, seize property, and more!

We Provide Free Last Will and Testament Templates

The last will and testament form sets out your preferences for how you would like your assets to be distributed after your death. It is one of the most important documents to create when planning your estate. Without it, disputes often arise between family members, and some assets may be turned over to the state if no heirs can be found.

You can also complement your last will with an informal document called a letter of instructions. This letter can go a long way in providing additional clarity to your beneficiaries and the executor of your will. While this letter is not a legal document, including certain elements can help make the estate probate process more manageable. For example, it would come in handy when your executor needs to know where to find specific documents or how to log into your important online accounts.

An example of how a last will can start

Last Will Forms by State

There can be a slight difference between the states when it comes to creating last will documents. For example, you will need to notarize your will in Louisiana, besides having two witnesses present during the signing process.

Additionally, some states are community property states, which means the estate can be considered jointly owned by both spouses by default, if not stated otherwise. All other states have equitable distribution, where distribution is fair but not always equal.

Creating a Will in Texas

If you want to create a Texas last will and testament, know that under the Texas statute, It must be signed by the testator along with two or more trustworthy witnesses who are at minimum 14 years old and who have signed the will in the presence of the testator. To add legal protection, the testator may have the document notarized even though it is optional. As long as the testator remains in good mental health, the last will can be modified or revoked at any time by them.

Creating a Will in Florida

When creating a last will and testament in Florida, keep in mind that Florida law requires that last will documents be witnessed and signed by two adult witnesses during execution and signing. The testator can have the document acknowledged by a notary public to provide some extra legal assurance. Wills in Florida are subject to amendment or cancellation at any given time.

Creating a Will in California

For a California will, the requirements are pretty much the same. Under sections 6100 – 6806 (Wills and Intestate Succession statutes), the last will and testament document in this state must be signed by two witnesses. The California probate code states that in California when someone dies without making a will, the property will automatically be given to a spouse/domestic partner and then any descendants. If there are no survivors, assets will be administered by the state.

Creating a Will in North Carolina

A North Carolina last will and testament must be signed by at least two witnesses, who must also acknowledge the signature of the testator. If the testator desires to add legal strength to their will, the document can be notarized. It is important to note that the testator can change or revoke their will as long as they are of sound mind.

Creating a Will in New York

A New York State will must be signed by two witnesses within thirty days of each other. They must also write their full address below their signatures and ensure the testator meets all legal requirements. Once the will has been created and executed, it should remain with someone who can easily access it, such as the testator’s attorney or a trusted relative.

The manual comprises over 380 full-size pages with legal information on every state and the District of Columbia. It is the most complete and thorough manual available anywhere!

The manual is written in e-book format to be quickly delivered over the Internet for immediate use! The manual can also be viewed online and even printed on your own printer if desired. We believe in providing our members with alternatives!

Continuing access to the latest version! Because the manual is in e-book form, it can constantly be revised and updated. You will always have access to the most recent version!
