Judgment Business Names And Entities

October 9th, 2011

I am not a lawyer, I am a judgment referral expert (Judgment Broker). This article is my opinion, based on my experience in California, and laws vary in each state. Nothing in any of my articles should ever be considered legal advice. If you ever need legal advice or a strategy to use, you should contact a lawyer.

When you start a judgment business, or any business, you will be choosing and verifying a good business name. If your name is (e.g.) Frank Smith, you could register a franksmith domain, and do business under your own name. You could then skip getting a fictitious business name (doing business as) registration. However, most people form a business under another name, such as JudmgentsRus, and file a fictitious business name application.

Unless you are an attorney, you cannot represent anyone else. If you are a sole proprietor using a DBA, when in court, or when signing court documents for judgments you own, you must sign them with your real name. A DBA is not a separate entity from you.

The only advantage to signing court documents with your name and also your DBA business name, is if you have a catchy DBA name and you think someone might notice it. This happens less often than one might think. So signing court documents just with your name, saves you time and hassle.

We also get to learn certain skills needed to move over and survive the next phase in life.

Being in college, you will need to learn and develop certain skills which will help you survive and succeed in the workplace. Though the skills to be possessed by an individual depend on the industry that he/she is in, there are certain skills which are common to all of them. Here they are:

1. Communication skills – A very important skill which needs to be developed by one and all, it has been taught to us from our school days. It is the first skill which an employer looks for in an individual. Any student/individual must be able to express the thoughts and also be able to understand what is being said.

2. Technical skills – Every student is expected to know how to handle a computer, since it’s one of the most common means of work in the new generation. Any basic job requires a person to be able to use the computer.
