Q. I just won a default judgement on a lawsuit in Circuit Court. How do I go about getting what I sued for (Money)

A: Now that you have a judgement entered against the medical entity or person, you are considered a judgment creditor. You may wish to contact an attorney that handles creditor rights/collection. There are several ways that you can try and collect on your judgment depending on who your judgment is against.
