Why Sell Your Delaware Judgment Instead of Collecting?
In Delaware, you have up to 5 years (execution window) to enforce a civil judgment — but enforcement requires time, legal resources, and often multiple court proceedings across different tools: wage garnishments, bank levies, and property liens.
Post-judgment interest accrues at 5% over Federal Reserve discount rate, which adds value over time — but only if the debtor actually has assets you can reach. Many debtors actively avoid collection by hiding assets, changing employment, or depleting bank accounts.
Selling your Delaware judgment to Great Lakes Strategic Capital converts that uncertain future recovery into an immediate, guaranteed cash payment. We handle all enforcement risk, legal costs, and debtor contact after the assignment is complete.
