To file a complaint complete the Licensee/Subdivider Complaint (RE 519). For more information on filling out your complaint form you can download Complaint Form Information (RE 519A).
Things to include:
A. Provide a written explanation of the exact nature of your complaint.

When you win a claim against a licensed contractor in California, he or she has 30 days after the Notice of Entry of Judgment to appeal. (The easiest way to find out whether or not the contractor has a license is to conduct a search through the Contractors State License Board’s website www.cslb.ca.gov or call at 1-800-321-2752.) After the 30-day period, you can choose to execute either one or both of these options:

(1) If the judgment was issued due to poor workmanship, you can contact the contractor’s bond insurance company and collect money from the bond. You can also search for this information at the above website (www.cslb.ca.gov). The insurance company will walk you through the process to file a complaint and collect your money according to their policy.

(2) You can file a complaint form with the Contractor’s State License Board by calling the Board's toll-free automated information phone line, 1-800-321-CSLB, or writing to P.O. Box 269116, Sacramento, CA 95827. You can also file the form online at www.cslb.ca.gov/ or download it at http://www.cslb.ca.gov/Resources/forms-and-applications/consumer-complaintform.pdf. The Contractor’s State License Board will send a notice to the contractor giving him or her 90 days to either pay the judgment in full, sign a written agreement before a notary to pay in installments, or post bond. If the contractor fails to respond within the 90 days, the Board will suspend the contractor’s license until he or she pays you in full. If the contractor has more then one case filed against him or her, their license could be suspended indefinitely.

Collecting a Small Claims Judgment against a Company or Corporation.
https://small-claims-process-server.com/
When suing a business, whether it is a corporation, limited liability company, or an individual doing business as a fictitious business name, it is extremely important to name the debtor correctly. If you do not name them correctly you will either lose your case or obtain a judgment that cannot be collected upon. Before filing your suit you must do a little research to find out exactly from whom it is you will be collecting. To put this in perspective, consider an example:
Let’s say a plaintiff slipped on a wet floor that was not marked at ‘Giant Mart’. The plaintiff immediately takes pictures of the floor, water, aisle sign, and the big ‘Giant Mart’ sign outside. Since medical expenses are incurred, the plaintiff sues, naming Giant Mart as the defendant. The small claims trial concludes with the plaintiff receiving a judgment against the debtor Giant Mart. The plaintiff then decides he wants the sheriff to perform a till tap in order to satisfy the judgment. When trying to collect on that judgment, the sheriff walks into Giant Mart and asks the manager for money from the till to satisfy the judgment. The manager takes one look at the judgment form and tells the sheriff that he is in the wrong place, that this is a Big Grocery doing business as Giant Mart. What you should take away from this example is that you cannot simply read the sign outside the company’s store or offices. Companies can use fictitious names and dba’s (doing business as)

How to locate the judgment debtor?
Locating a debtor after a judgment has been entered in your favor may be a complicated and troublesome process. You will need to know some information about the debtor before you can collect on their assets. If you have trouble locating the debtor, there are a number of available options you may exhaust:
https://small-claims-process-server.com/
Internet
Try to use the Internet to find information on the debtor by typing their name into a search engine and see what comes up. You should be wary about obtaining information off of the
Internet however, because more than one person with the same name may come up in a general search.

Telephone Directory
Sometimes the telephone directory can serve as a good resource when you are trying to find information on the debtor. Utilize resources like the White Pages to find available information. You can also try calling Directory Assistance to locate the debtor’s phone number.

U.S. Post Office Forwarded Addresses
If you cannot find the debtor, the U.S. Post Office will not voluntarily reveal the debtor’s new forwarding address. However, you can try to send an envelope to the last known residence and if the debtor filed a Change of Address form, then the post office will forward the envelope to the debtor’s new address. It is then up to the debtor whether or not they contact you with their new address. If you have specific questions regarding change of addresses or forwarding addresses, call the U.S. Post Office Customer Service hotline: 1-800-275-8777.

Credit reports
Regardless of how much information you might have (i.e., the debtor’s social security number, driver’s license number, etc.), it is illegal to run the debtor’s credit report without his or her knowledge. However, a good place to look up background information on the debtor is https://www.skip-trace-search.com/.

Business records
If the debtor owns a business then you may be able to collect from the business’ assets. The City Hall website and the Secretary of State’s website are great resources to help you conduct business searches. You can request information from the Secretary of State regarding the business by writing to the Secretary of State or visiting its website.

Private investigator https://www.lancecasey.com/
For a fee, private investigators can help you find information on the debtor. Many investigators are listed online or in the Yellow Pages.

Public Real Estate Records:
If you are having trouble locating a debtor, one way to obtain information is to go through public real estate records at the County Recorder’s Office. The County Recorder’s Office is in charge of recording any last recorded document under a person’s name such as real property transactions. Each county has its own recorder’s office that stores public information for their residence. You will need the full legal name of the person and go to the county where you think the debtor resides to be able to look up any records through the County Recorder’s Office indexes. You can also look up records through the County Recorder’s Office by using the Internet and entering the debtor’s name.

When to Start Collecting Your Small Claims Judgment?
You must wait 30 days after the Judgment is entered or mailed to collect your small claims judgment. This gives the defendant the opportunity to appeal. There is no longer a wait time after an appeal.

If the defendant appears at the hearing and lost, he or she has 30 days to file for an appeal. If there is no appeal, you can start collecting after this period of time. If the defendant chooses to appeal, there will be a new hearing date at the superior court. If you win at this new hearing, you can start collecting upon receipt of the new judgment, which usually occurs within 10 days.

If the defendant failed to show up at the hearing and lost, you would also have to wait 30 days from the date of judgment to start collecting. The defendant, however, has the option to file a motion to vacate judgment within 180 days after the date of the original judgment. Based on the defendant’s reason for not appearing at the hearing, the judge may allow the motion to vacate the judgment. One good reason would be that the defendant was not served properly or on time. If the judge approves the motion and sets another date for a hearing, you must wait another 30 days from the date of the new judgment to collect. If the motion to vacate was denied, you can start collecting; however, the defendant can still appeal the denial of the motion. It is a complicated process and rarely happens; however, if the defendant does so, you must wait until the appeal is resolved.
