Barry E. Janay has a wealth of experience in all aspects including plaintiff side work and defense work for both consumer and commercial collections as well as in entering, docketing, obtaining certified / exemplified / originals of the transcripts of judgment, and in all aspects of executing and enforcing on money judgments. Since 2004, Mr. Janay has recovered millions upon millions of dollars for his clients* (See Attorney Advertising Notice below) in “collections” styled matters from the simplest “failure to pay” to the more complex situations involving co-guarantors and obtaining relief from automatic stays, turnover proceedings, and more.
A common misconception is that many people believe that a final judgment “ends the case” (barring an appeal), this is not always the case because the responsibility to execute and enforce on the judgment lies with the party awarded the judgment (the “Judgment Creditor”). Mr. Janay works with factoring firms who have purchased claims from judgment creditors, the judgment creditors themselves, collections firms that have exhausted their efforts and now need an attorney who has authority to issue Judicial Subpoenas and institute supplementary and post judgment proceedings.
Sophisticated judgment debtors know all of the tricks of the trade for hiding assets that they want to avoid from being restrained, frozen, garnished, or levied. Nonetheless, if the Judgment Creditor had assets were transferred to another party or entity for the purpose of fleecing the creditor a judgment creditor has a right to pursue a claim against that party if it may be considered to have been a fraudulent conveyance. Mr. Janay works with asset investigators capable of tracking these transfers and conveyances and will conduct all necessary supplementary proceedings in an effort to recover the money that the judgment creditor is entitled to.
While not every case is winnable even if you’ve already obtained a judgment because a debtor has become bankrupt and proceedings have been stayed or discharged, the debtor has no assets to attach or seize, has moved outside of the jurisdiction, or has validly incorporated or formed another limited liability entity that is impermeable to an attempt to pierce the corporate veil, etc.
Barry E. Janay represents clientele in federal and state courts in the New York City area, including Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island, Westchester County, and greater New York.
