Debt Recovery
Unpaid bills are a burden for everybody in business. A healthy cash flow system is an essential factor to ensure commercial success. It is sensible to release valuable time and leave debt recovery to us. Our Debt Recovery Team has proven experience of recovering individual and bulk debt portfolios for clients across a wide range of business sectors.We work in partnership with clients to provide a trusted, outsourced third party service to recover small, large and bulk debts. As a third party adviser we can:
- step up the pressure on customers where it may be difficult or inappropriate for clients to do so;
- defuse awkward situations without clients being involved ; and
- preserve ongoing relationships with good clients by pursuing the debt firmly but tactfully.
What does it cost?
Clients retain control of each step of the proceedings. We will not take any step which will incur a cost to a client without their prior consent. Costs of each step are kept to a minimum and certain costs are recoverable from the debtor provided they pay up in full.Will we have to go to Court?
Other organisations can send letters demanding payment but if a debtor disputes the debt or refuses to pay then we have the expertise and experience to prepare a claim, go to Court and obtain a judgment.There are occasions when Court action is, unfortunately, necessary. In these circumstances our specialist team provides a robust and efficient presentation of clients' cases in order to gain best result for them.
We aim to provide a high quality service and will deal with matters of this nature in a friendly and professional manner. We also work hard to ensure that there is regular communication with clients to ensure they are kept fully informed about the progress of their case.
