Creditors finding accounts

[Secrest]

If you are going to be sued and get a judgment and the creditor tries to locate bank accounts, what do they do. I heard they send out letters to all of your local banks. What if you set up accounts with an online bank or with a bank that doesn't even have branches in your state. Would they be able to locate them then.

Eventually, if one looks hard enough.

If you've had the unfortunate incident of bouncing a check and it's reported to ChexSystems then I guess a lawyer could look at ChexSystems and see your accounts there and go after them.
