Sell a court judgment in Nevada
Last updated:
Short answer: In Nevada, as in most states, a money judgment can usually be sold by assigning it to a buyer. Before you sell, check how much enforceable life the judgment has left, how interest accrues, and how the assignment is recorded. Facts below are marked verified only where we checked an official source.

How do you file an assignment of judgment?
Not verified. We did not find an Nevada statute or statewide court form that sets out how an assignment of judgment is filed. In practice, assignees commonly file a signed, notarized assignment of judgment with the clerk of the court that entered the judgment, but procedure varies by court. Confirm with that clerk or counsel.
Do judgment buyers and collectors need a license?
Collection agencies are licensed by the Financial Institutions Division (NRS ch. 649).
