๐ฏ Professional Skip Tracing Services in Montana
People Locator Skip Tracing provides comprehensive investigation and people-finding services throughout Montana. Whether you’re a Billings attorney trying to enforce a judgment, a Missoula process server searching for an evasive defendant, or a Great Falls business owner tracking down someone who owes you money, our professional investigators have the tools and expertise to locate them.
Montana presents unique skip tracing challenges. As the fourth-largest state by area but with only about 1.1 million residents, Montana combines vast rural expanses with small urban centers. Billings, the largest city, has only about 120,000 people. The state’s geographyโfrom the Rocky Mountain west to the Great Plains eastโcreates challenges for locating people in remote areas with limited infrastructure and rural addressing.
Our investigators understand Montana’s geography, demographics, court systems, and economic patterns. We know the energy industry of Eastern Montana, the university communities of Missoula and Bozeman, the agricultural regions throughout the state, and the tourism economy around Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks.
โ๏ธ Montana Judgment Enforcement Laws
๐ Judgment Duration & Renewal
๐ Montana Code Annotated ยง 27-2-201
Montana judgments are enforceable for 10 years from the date of entry. Judgments may be renewed by bringing an action on the judgment before expiration. Interest accrues at 10% per annum under MCA ยง 25-9-205.
๐ฐ Wage Garnishment Rules
๐ Montana Code Annotated ยง 25-13-614
Montana follows federal wage garnishment limits: up to 25% of disposable earnings or the amount exceeding 30 times the federal minimum wage, whichever is less. Montana uses a “Writ of Execution” process for wage garnishment served through the sheriff.
๐ Montana Homestead Exemption
๐ Montana Code Annotated ยง 70-32-104
Montana’s homestead exemption protects up to $350,000 in equity in a primary residence. This generous exemption, combined with Montana’s generally moderate property values outside resort areas, protects most homeowners’ equity entirely.
๐ Vehicle Exemptions
๐ Montana Code Annotated ยง 25-13-609
Montana exempts one motor vehicle up to $4,000 in value. Vehicles with equity above this amount may be subject to execution.
๐ก Montana’s Collection Landscape
Montana’s $350,000 homestead exemption protects most home equity, but the 10% judgment interest rate and standard wage garnishment rules create collection opportunities. The challenge is often locating debtors across Montana’s vast territory. Our Montana skip tracing provides statewide coverage including the most remote areas.
