I don’t know anything about civil suits, but from the outside looking in it seems like it’s very easy for defendants to dodge, delay, withhold payment, hide assets, etc. When a judgement is handed down, how is it enforced? And how often, if ever, are assets seized/frozen?

Judgement can be handed down, but if a person doesn’t have it, there’s not much you can do. I think that’s something we forget about in a lot of these lawsuits.
Edited to say that they can garnish wages and issue levy’s against your bank accounts and even sized your property, but if the person has nothing it not payout the way it was hoped.
