What can I do to get the money I’m owed?
I’ve been fighting this for 3 years and they didn’t appeal the judgement. So my employer owes me $2600. The labor board passed down a judgement along with the courts. However, the labor board can only put a lien on the property.

If you have a judgement that has been issued buy a court of law then you can execute on that judgement by any means pemitted by under the law in your state. That generally means you can levy bank account, garnish wages (maybe not available here) or file a lien against property. Look to you local bar association and see if they have any pamphlets about collecting a judgement or even the small claims court may have one. Good luck.
