How does the judicial recovery process work?
Judicial recovery is initiated after out-of-court attempts (amicable recovery) have been unsuccessful. In general, this process includes:
- Initial notificationWe send a formal notice to the debtor, alerting them to the existence of the debt and offering the possibility of a settlement before resorting to the courts.
- Legal actionIf the debtor doesn't respond, we file a collection action with the competent court. The debtor is summoned and can contest the debt by filing a defense.
- Execution of JudgmentAfter the trial, if the judgment is in favor of the creditor, the debt is enforced, which can include seizing assets, blocking bank accounts or even auctioning off assets.
Monteiro & Valente accompanies the process in all its stages, guiding the client in a clear and objective manner. We offer an agile service, minimizing the financial impact caused by default.

Common questions about Judicial Recovery
What is judicial recovery and when is it necessary?
Judicial recovery is a legal process used to demand payment of a debt when attempts at amicable or out-of-court recovery have failed. It becomes necessary when the debtor does not respond or refuses to pay the debt within the agreed timeframe. Unlike out-of-court collection, judicial collection involves the action of the Judiciary, which can result in the seizure of assets, blocking of bank accounts, among other coercive measures. In Brazil, judicial collection follows the rules of the Code of Civil Procedure and can be used by both companies and individuals.
This type of action is common in situations where there is default on rent, bank loans, condominium debts, protested titles, among others. Monteiro & Valente Advogados Associados acts quickly and strategically to ensure that the creditor's rights are preserved and that the amount owed is recovered.
What are the main steps in the judicial recovery process?
The judicial collection process follows a series of stages, starting with the notification of the debtor. After all attempts to reach an amicable agreement have been exhausted, a collection action is filed. The debtor is summoned and given the opportunity to present their defense. If the defense is not accepted or if the debtor does not respond, the judge can pass judgment in favor of the creditor.
With the judgment in hand, the enforcement phase begins, where the judge can order the blocking of bank accounts, seizure of assets or other measures to guarantee payment of the debt. In some cases, the process can end with the sale of seized assets at auction. Throughout the process, it is essential to have the support of a specialized lawyer to ensure that all the legal steps are complied with.
What are the costs involved in a legal claim?
The costs of a legal collection action can vary according to the complexity of the case and the amount of the debt. The most common expenses include procedural costs, which must be paid to the court when the case is filed, as well as legal fees. In many cases, these costs can be recovered from the debtor if the judge orders the losing party to pay the court costs.
Another relevant cost is the legal fees paid by the losing party to the winning party's lawyer. It is important that the creditor assesses the possible costs and benefits with their lawyer before starting a legal claim, to ensure that the process is financially viable.
How long does a judicial recovery process take?
The length of a legal collection process depends on several factors, such as the complexity of the case, the debtor's defense and the efficiency of the local judiciary. On average, a case can last from a few months to several years, especially if there are appeals or legal maneuvers that delay the conclusion. The debt enforcement phase, when there is an attempt to seize assets or block accounts, tends to be quicker.
Monteiro & Valente Advogados Associados works strategically to speed up the process, using all the legal mechanisms available to ensure that the creditor recovers their credit in the shortest possible time.
What are the alternatives to judicial recovery?
Before resorting to legal collection, it is important to evaluate faster and less costly alternatives, such as out-of-court collection. Out-of-court collection involves attempts to negotiate directly with the debtor, including sending collection letters, making phone calls, filing protests and proposing debt renegotiation.
This approach can be effective in solving the problem of default without resorting to the courts. If the debtor shows interest in negotiating, it may be possible to avoid legal proceedings, saving time and resources. However, when amicable collection fails, judicial collection becomes a necessary option to guarantee payment.
