Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Georgia

I sued a general contractor in 2014, he never paid so I filed a FiFa this year. I attempted a garnishment but I do not know his bank info and unfortunately the original case read "His name C/O company name" vs "His name dba company name"

You may have a void judgment. If he was an LLC or a corporation you probably sued the wrong party. Second your fifa should have been filed in 2014. Third, unless you can identify the named defendants assets your judgment is worthless. Fourth, you can't garnished a bank unless you know what bank.

Since you may not even have sued the right party and your statute of limitations may soon run see a lawyer Monday.

People rarely collect from contractors.
