I have a contract between my ex-boyfriend, myself and my daughter. He owes her 20,000 approximately. He has property in Milledgeville, GA. What procedure do I take to get her money?

Re: contract

You and/or your daughter will probably need to file suit for breach of contract against him. Because of the amount, you would not be bale to bring the action in small claims court, so I would recommend that you get an attorney and file in state court. Once you get a judgment, you can begin collecting on it.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.

Re: contract

You will need to sue him in the county of his residence and get a judgment before you can go after his property.

Re: contract

The procedure is to hire a lawyer. Even if we could get much from 2-3 sentences about a contratc of some sort, guiding you through a lawsuit, lien on property and other issues is far beyond the scope of this board.
