    Freezing Bank account
    Hi
    A friend of mine owes me some money for the work that was done by me. I've tried numourous times by calling them but they don't respond. Is there any way as an individual I can freeze their bank account.

    You will have to sue them in court, then you get a judgement, once you get a judgement depending on the rules of your state, you may be able to garnish wages or attach bank acocunts. So depending on the amount you may use small claims court or regular civil court
