Involving a Debt Collection Attorney
When the case has to be escalated.
Involving a Debt Collection Attorney
In accordance with our Claim Placement Form (or in the absence of any advice from you to the contrary), claims will be placed with attorneys in the appropriate jurisdictions when a debtor continues to refuse to cooperate with us regarding payment or the setting up of satisfactory terms.
THE HAND OFF.
On all claims placed with counsel, you will receive a copy of our placement letter. This document contains all pertinent information on your debtor, including a brief history of the account. It is sent to you not only to use to check our accuracy, but also to become a permanent part of your own file.
TAKING A DEBTOR TO COURT
Should suit become necessary, counsel will submit requirements in terms of court costs and suit fees, all of which are over and above the contingent commissions you will pay to us for any collections. These usually modest requirements must be approved by you, prior to any legal action being taken. Without this approval, no fees can accrue.
COLLECTION RATES WHEN INVOLVING A DEBT COLLECTION ATTORNEY
PLEASE NOTE THAT CLAIMS ACKNOWLEDGED AT LESS THAN REGULAR RATES (25% 1ST $2,000.00; 20% EXCESS), AND WHICH REQUIRE LEGAL ACTION, ARE FORWARDED UNDER THIS REGULAR RATE SCHEDULE (25% 1ST $2,000.00; 20% EXCESS).
