    How do I get the money from an individual after I won the law suit?
    I won in a property damage law suit in small claims court in San Antonio Tx. And, the lady paid 1 payment of 100.00 on a 1200.00 bill and stopped. I need to collect some other legal way. What is that way?

    Go back to the court and file for a Writ of Garnishment... then you can collect from most any asset they have... like bank accounts etc... wages. If she lives on SSI and has no accounts you might find it hard to collect.

    Yes, winning in small claims is fairly easy, actually getting your money is another issue. You will have to find out where they work or where they bank and attempt to garnish their checking account for it.
