Unfortunately, it is difficult to collect the money that you are owed.

You have what is called a "judgment".

But collecting on that "judgment" is often difficult.

If the person has no assets or money, then you "won" but you only "won" on paper.

I wish I could be more encouraging -- but I have a man that owes me a lot of money and he has avoided paying me for over 10 years!

You might want to hire an attorney to help you.

Please don't call me because I don't do this type of work.

I cannot think of an attorney to refer you to for assistance.

Good luck and congratulations on winning in small claims court!
