How the engagement works
We begin by reviewing the basis of the debt, the documents supporting the claim and any correspondence or previous attempts to obtain payment. We then advise on the appropriate recovery strategy, which may involve a formal demand, negotiation, settlement or legal proceedings.
Where settlement is possible, we can assist with negotiating and documenting appropriate repayment terms. Where litigation becomes necessary, we advise on the process, prospects and steps required to pursue recovery.
Initial enquiry
Please provide the general nature of the debt, the amount outstanding, the identity and location of the debtor, and the basis on which the debt arose. Where available, you may identify the relevant agreement, invoice, acknowledgement or other supporting document.
Avoid including unnecessary confidential or sensitive information in the initial website enquiry. We will arrange an appropriate method for receiving documents and further information required to assess the matter.
