When customers and other debtors fail to pay their bills, businesses are at risk of experiencing critical cash flow issues. Debt collection is vitally important and can be greatly assisted by a knowledgeable attorney. There are many legal steps that can be taken to collect old and new past due receivables for goods and services that you supplied and/or rendered. Some are more effective than others. At The Law Offices of James P. Lucking, the firm's first step is to investigate the debtor's situation, including any assets that may be available for repayment. The firm may then file prejudgment motions to attach any such assets to ensure that the debtor is not able to dissipate its assets while the suit is progressing. This is important because the sole purpose of almost every commercial collection litigation is to get you paid. Once an attachment is in place, the firm will attempt to persuade the debtor with negotiation or mediation to pay what is owed. If the debtor is unwilling to pay, the firm will vigorously pursue the claim in court. Contact us today for a free consultation.
