Contact your local city or county court house and give them you identifying information and ask them to look and see if there is any judgments filed or pending against you.

You can also pull copies of your credit report from all of the credit reporting agencies:

Experian 888-397-3742

Equifax 800-685-1111
www.equifax.com

TransUnion 800-916-8800

Hi gwr,

Welcome to this community :)

The easiest way to find out if there is a judgment against you is to pull a copy of your credit report. You are entitled to get a free copy of your credit report once a year. You can get a copy from www.annualcreditreport.com . If there is a judgment against you, it will be listed on your credit report.

Other than this you check your local civil court clerk's index. You will get to know from there if there is a judgment against you. Hope this helps.

Regards,

Aaron

if it is not on your credit reports, then you have to search the courts. Some online services do this but, you can do it for free if you go from court to court.

Go to the district court where you live. Search the civil docket for your name. if you have moved, go to your previous addresses
