Collecting on a Personal Promissory Note - Weston, Florida
I wrote out a Promissory Note for a Personal Loan to a relative for $50k.
The Relative works in Weston, Florida and earns 6 figures.
The 1st Payment is due on Jan. 1st, 2018 but I despite trying to contact my cousin, he seems to be hiding out from me and other family members.
I think the only recourse I have is to hire an Attorney to get a Judgement and Garnish his Salary.
Can anyone recommend an Attorney, preferably in the Weston/Fort Lauderdale/Miami area? I can search on the Internet, but I wanted to start with recommendations first.
Much appreciate it.

@Llewelyn A. I can't recommend an attorney in the Miami area, however, was wondering more about this situation. Is this a real estate loan, or is it an unsecured note? In the past year, I loaned money to investors that were secured by a property as collateral. I had a default clause in the note and recently exercised my option to collect. The default notice seemed to do the trick, and I'm working towards getting paid. Best of luck.
