Recovery System for Company Funds
Phase One
Within the first 24 hours of initiating Phase One, we spring into action. Our team dispatches the initial demand letter to the debtor and undertakes a comprehensive skip-trace to unearth the most current financial and contact details. We’re relentless, employing phone calls, emails, text messages, and faxes to engage the debtor and seek a resolution.
Daily attempts are made to reach an agreement in the first 30 to 60 days. If these efforts don’t yield results, we don’t hesitate to escalate to Phase Two, involving our network of skilled attorneys.
Our approach is methodical and persistent:
- Dispatch of the first demand letter via US Mail
- Skip-tracing and investigation for accurate debtor information
- Persistent contact attempts through various communication channels
Should our persistent attempts fail to resolve the matter, we promptly move to Phase Two, ensuring no momentum is lost in the recovery process.
Phase Two
Once we escalate to Phase Two, our affiliated attorneys within the debtor’s jurisdiction take the helm. Here’s what we do:
- Draft and dispatch a series of firm letters on law firm letterhead, demanding payment.
- Initiate persistent telephone contact, aiming to negotiate a resolution.
Should these efforts not yield the desired results, we prepare a detailed report. This outlines the challenges encountered and our advised course of action. It’s at this juncture we must consider the viability of moving to Phase Three.
We stand by our commitment to recover what’s owed to you, with transparency and diligence at every step.
Phase Three
At this juncture, we face a critical decision. If the debtor’s assets and the case facts suggest recovery is unlikely, we advise closing the case, incurring no cost to you. Conversely, should litigation seem viable, you’re at a crossroads.
Withdrawing the claim is an option, freeing you from any financial obligation to us. Alternatively, we can persist with standard collection efforts—calls, emails, faxes—to coax payment.
Choosing litigation necessitates upfront legal fees, typically between $600 to $700. These cover court costs and filing fees, with our attorney initiating a lawsuit to recover all dues, including these expenses. Should litigation not yield results, the case concludes, and you owe us nothing.
Our rates are structured to be competitive, with a sliding scale based on claim volume within the first week:
- For 1 to 9 claims, rates vary by account age and amount.
- For 10 or more claims, we offer reduced rates, rewarding higher volume submissions.
Transparency in fees ensures you make informed decisions at every phase.
Recommendations for Enforcing Payment Terms
Thorough Investigation
Before we leap into enforcement, we conduct a thorough investigation. Knowing the debtor’s financial landscape is crucial. We assess the likelihood of recovery meticulously. If the odds are against us, we advise against litigation to save you unnecessary expenses.
We prioritize your financial well-being, ensuring that any action taken is in your best interest.
When the investigation points to a favorable outcome, we prepare for the next steps. Here’s a quick rundown of our investigative process:
- Review the debtor’s asset and financial status
- Analyze the age and size of the claim
- Evaluate the jurisdiction’s legal framework
Our findings guide your decision—whether to proceed with legal action or explore alternative collection methods.
Litigation Decision
When we face the crossroads of litigation, we must weigh our options carefully. If the investigation suggests a slim chance of recovery, we’ll advise against legal action. However, should we opt for litigation, we’re looking at upfront costs. These typically range from $600 to $700, covering court and filing fees.
We must consider the financial implications and the potential for recovery before proceeding.
Our decision hinges on a cost-benefit analysis. Here’s a snapshot of potential upfront legal costs:
| Jurisdiction | Estimated Costs |
|---|---|
| Local | $600 – $700 |
Remember, choosing to litigate is not just about the immediate costs; it’s about the long-term gain. If we decide against it, we can still engage in standard collection activities or withdraw the claim entirely, owing nothing.
Legal Action Costs
When we decide to take legal action, costs are upfront and transparent. We’re committed to minimizing your expenses while maximizing recovery chances. Expect to cover court costs and filing fees, typically ranging from $600 to $700, depending on the debtor’s jurisdiction.
Upon initiating litigation, our affiliated attorney will aggressively pursue all monies owed, including the cost to file this action. If unsuccessful, rest assured, you owe us nothing further.
Here’s a quick breakdown of potential upfront costs:
| Expense Type | Estimated Cost |
|---|---|
| Court Costs | $300 – $400 |
| Filing Fees | $300 – $350 |
Remember, these are investments towards recovering your funds. We’ll guide you through every step, ensuring clarity and confidence in the process.

Remember, these rates apply to the initial batch of claims within the first week of engagement. It’s crucial to consider the age and size of the debt when assessing the potential cost of recovery.
Rates for 10 or More Claims
When we handle a volume of 10 or more claims, we’re able to offer more competitive rates. This is our way of acknowledging the trust and scale of our partnership. The larger the batch, the lower the percentage we take from the amount collected.
Here’s a quick breakdown of our fee structure for bulk claims:
| Age of Account | Rate |

For accounts that require legal intervention, the rate remains consistent at 50%, regardless of the number of claims. This reflects the additional complexity and resources involved in such cases.
