A: Without more information on your particular financial situation it is not possible to give you a complete answer. Regarding your Social Security payments they are protected from collection. You may have other assets that they can attach so you will want to contact an attorney with experience in these matters. If you have no assets and only get retirement benefits you can contact the law firm that obtained the Judgment and explain your situation to them and see if they can work out a settlement with you.
