Judgments entered outside of California cannot be enforced against California assets until they are properly domesticated.
We handle the domestication of out-of-state and federal judgments as part of a broader enforcement strategy. Domestication is not an end in itself; it is the step that unlocks California’s enforcement remedies.
Once domesticated, the judgment is treated as a California judgment and may be enforced using levies, liens, assignment orders, and other post-judgment tools directed at California assets and operations.
