Recovery System for Company Funds
Phase One
Within the first 24 hours of initiating Phase One, we spring into action. Our team sends out the initial demand letter and employs skip-tracing to uncover the most current financial and contact details of the debtors. Daily attempts to communicate are made, leveraging phone calls, emails, texts, and faxes.
We’re relentless in our pursuit, aiming for a swift resolution within the first 30 to 60 days. If our efforts don’t yield results, we seamlessly transition to Phase Two, engaging our network of affiliated attorneys.
Here’s a snapshot of our initial actions:
- Send the first of four letters via US Mail
- Conduct thorough skip-tracing
- Initiate contact through multiple channels
Our goal is clear: resolve the matter expediently, or prepare for the next phase of recovery.
Phase Two
We’ve escalated the matter to our network of local attorneys, ensuring that your case receives the legal muscle it needs. Immediate action is taken:
- A series of demand letters are drafted and sent, clearly stating the debt owed.
- Persistent phone calls commence, aiming to reach a resolution.
Despite these intensified efforts, some debtors remain unresponsive. In such cases, we prepare for the final phase, tailoring our strategy to the unique challenges of each case.
If this phase does not yield results, we’re ready to advise on the next critical steps. Our commitment is to recover what’s rightfully yours, with minimal financial risk on your part.
Phase Three
At the crossroads of Phase Three, we face critical decisions. If the likelihood of recovery is slim, we advise closing the case, sparing you further costs. Conversely, should litigation seem viable, a choice presents itself.
Withdrawal is an option, incurring no fees. Alternatively, we can persist with standard collection efforts—calls, emails, faxes.
Choosing litigation necessitates upfront legal costs, typically $600-$700, covering court and filing fees. Our affiliated attorney then champions your cause, seeking full recompense. Failure to collect post-litigation results in case closure, with no financial obligation to us.
Our commitment is clear: No recovery, no fees. Your financial exposure is limited to the pursuit of justice.
Our rates are structured to reflect the volume of claims, ensuring competitiveness:
- For 1-9 claims, rates vary by age and amount of the account.
- For 10 or more claims, reduced rates apply, rewarding higher volumes.
The table below summarizes our fee structure:
| Number of Claims | Account Age | Amount Collected | Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-9 | < 1 year | Any | 30% |
| 1-9 | > 1 year | Any | 40% |
| 1-9 | Any | < $1000 | 50% |
| 10+ | < 1 year | Any | 27% |
| 10+ | > 1 year | Any | 35% |
| 10+ | Any | < $1000 | 40% |
This transparent approach ensures you are informed and in control throughout the recovery process.
