Step one is filing a motion for default judgment with the court and scheduling a hearing on the motion. Step two is presenting evidence at the hearing about the amount being sought.
Step three is collecting, and that's the hard part; you have to find out where the defendant's assets are and try to reach them with garnishment actions.
