Our Philosophy.

We recognize that in today's world, your business reputation is a valuable asset. Our efforts in assisting you to collect overdue debts should not damage that reputation.

We also realize that everyone can fall into a tough financial situation sometimes. We give every debtor we work with a chance to resolve the matter amicably.

However, we also realize that some people only pay debts they are forced to pay. We do not shy away from recommending and following through with litigation when necessary.

Fees.

If you're concerned about costs, let's discuss what we can do that will bring you the results you want.

In the past, we have worked with our clients (and even with their existing collection agencies) in hourly fee arrangements, flat fee arrangements, and contingency fee arrangements as well as combinations of these.

Most of our routine collection lawsuits are based on a contingency fee arrangement of 33% of the amount recovered before filing of a lawsuit, and 40% thereafter; plus costs. However, depending upon the average amount in dispute, how much time has lapsed since the last payment on the account, the type of account, and whether or not legal proceedings are necessary to perfect payment, the fees may be lower.

In other cases we charge a flat fee which depends on your unique situation or an hourly fee of $250 per hour expended on your case and the services you require.

Guarantee.

While litigation is too unpredictable to guarantee its results, we do guarantee that we will give you a frank assessment of your collection case before any lawsuit is recommended or filed.

We guarantee we will look out for your business reputation during all parts of the collection process, will keep you informed of the status of your case, and be available to answer your questions during the process.
