The Kendall County sheriff/marshal carries out levies and wage withholding once the court issues your order. Real-estate liens are recorded with the county recorder where the property sits.

Your collection options

These follow Texas law. See the full Texas guide for forms, fees, and deadlines.

Debtor's asset exam

Post-judgment discovery / order for examination of judgment debtor

Wage garnishment (restricted)

Not generally available for consumer debts in this state — use a levy or lien instead.

Bank levy

Writ of garnishment (bank account)

Property lien

Record a certified abstract of judgment with the county clerk in each county where the debtor owns (or may own) non-exempt real property; the lien attaches on recording and indexing (Tex. Prop. Code 52.001-52.006). The lien does NOT attach to homestead property.
