Former employer will not pay - judgement awarded

My former employer (Aug 1999-Feb2000) never officially let me go (company went under), they said they wanted to take me from salary to contract/per hour work; they said they would forward me the paperwork, and I never heard back from them.
I filed and was awarded a judgement against the employer, and let the state handle it. Recently, the state threw the ball back in my court with a statement of judgement, saying they could do nothing.
I would like to get legal assistance in collecting this money, which is a few months rent worth.
Any suggestions or interests?
Please remove the NOSPAM from my email to send me an email. Since this is public record, I do not want my address to get on anymore lists.
Thanks

Collection

Any good collections attorney should be willing to take the case, because there are statutory attorneys fees on top of the amount collected.

The owners of the company may be personally liable for your damages, but you can only go back three years.
