Recovery System for Company Funds
Phase One
We hit the ground running. Within the first 24 hours of initiating Phase One, our team springs into action. A series of four letters is dispatched to the debtor, marking the start of our relentless pursuit. We don’t just rely on traditional mail; our collectors employ a full arsenal – phone calls, emails, text messages, and faxes – to establish contact and negotiate a resolution.
Our goal is clear: to secure a swift and favorable outcome for your company. We leave no stone unturned, skip-tracing and investigating to unearth the most current financial and contact information. Persistence is key, and our collectors are trained to make daily attempts for the first 30 to 60 days. If these efforts don’t yield results, we’re ready to escalate to Phase Two, involving our network of affiliated attorneys.
- First, we send a series of demand letters.
- Next, we engage in rigorous skip-tracing.
- Then, we initiate contact through multiple channels.
- Finally, if necessary, we prepare to advance to the next phase.
Our approach is tailored to the unique challenges of recovering unpaid bills for agricultural exports, the payment hurdles faced by US art exporters, and the intricacies of the Dutch luxury goods market.
Phase Two
We’ve escalated our efforts. Our affiliated attorneys have taken the reins, drafting demands and initiating contact. The pressure is on. The debtor now faces the weight of legal letterhead and persistent calls. It’s a clear message: we mean business.
- The attorney drafts a series of letters demanding payment.
- Calls to the debtor intensify, aiming for resolution.
If this phase doesn’t yield results, we prepare for the decisive Phase Three. Our strategy adapts, ensuring we exhaust every avenue for recovery.
Phase Three
At the culmination of our recovery system, we reach Phase Three. Here, we’re faced with a critical juncture. Based on our comprehensive analysis of the debtor’s assets and the surrounding facts, we’ll advise on one of two paths.
If the likelihood of recovery is slim, we’ll suggest closing the case. In this scenario, you’re not on the hook for any fees to us or our affiliated attorney.
Alternatively, should litigation seem viable, you’re at a decision point. Opting out means no further costs, and you can either drop the claim or let us continue standard collection efforts. Choosing to litigate requires covering upfront legal costs, typically between $600 to $700. Should litigation not yield results, the case closes, and again, you owe us nothing.
Our rates are straightforward and competitive, varying with the number of claims. Here’s a quick breakdown:
-
For 1 through 9 claims:
- Accounts under 1 year: 30% of the amount collected.
- Accounts over 1 year: 40% of the amount collected.
- Accounts under $1000: 50% of the amount collected.
- Accounts with an attorney: 50% of the amount collected.
-
For 10 or more claims:
- Accounts under 1 year: 27% of the amount collected.
- Accounts over 1 year: 35% of the amount collected.
- Accounts under $1000: 40% of the amount collected.
- Accounts with an attorney: 50% of the amount collected.
We navigate the complexities of payment challenges for US art exporters and the Dutch luxury goods market with precision, ensuring your efforts in renewable energy exports to the Netherlands are rewarded, not written off.
Rates for Debt Collection
Rates for 1 through 9 claims
When we tackle fewer than ten claims, our rates reflect the intensity of our efforts. For accounts under a year old, we charge 30% of the amount collected. It’s a fair rate for the diligence we pour into each case. But for older accounts, the rate climbs to 40%—a testament to the additional challenges time introduces.
For those particularly small accounts under $1000, the rate is set at 50%. It’s steep, but so is the effort required to chase down these smaller sums. And if we need to bring in an attorney, the rate remains at 50%, ensuring that legal expertise is within reach without further complicating your financial recovery.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
- Accounts under 1 year: 30%
- Accounts over 1 year: 40%
- Accounts under $1000: 50%
- Accounts with an attorney: 50%
We’re committed to transparency. These rates are designed to align our success with yours—no hidden fees, no surprises. Just a straightforward path to reclaiming what’s yours.
Rates for 10 or more claims
When we handle a volume of 10 or more claims, we’re able to offer more competitive rates. Bulk processing allows us to be more efficient, passing the savings onto you. Here’s how our rates break down for larger claim batches:
| Age of Account | Rate of Collection |
|---|---|
| Under 1 year | 27% |
| Over 1 year | 35% |
| Under $1000 | 40% |
| With Attorney | 50% |
Volume is key in reducing costs. The more claims you entrust to us, the lower the percentage we take from the recovered funds. It’s a win-win situation.
We’re committed to transparency in our pricing structure. No hidden fees, no surprises. Just straightforward, fair rates for the hard work of reclaiming what’s rightfully yours.
