Debt Recovery

During the height of the recession, receiverships, administrations and company voluntary arrangements rocketed by 65 per cent year-on-year, according to The Sunday Times, and the Insolvency Service also reported nearly 52 per cent increase in liquidations for the last quarter of 2008, compared with the same period in 2007.  Many SMEs suffered and continue to suffer from the recession and late payments make matters worse and can destroy them by cutting off their cash flow. 

As a result, in March 2009 we launched a new Commercial Debt Recovery Scheme to help companies fight bad debts and poor cash flow. The scheme is designed to be simple and user-friendly with fixed costs on a sliding scale, depending on the claim. The key benefits include:

  • Recovery of debts with the fee only taken once the money is recovered
  • The fixed fee includes insurance to protect against opponents’ costs
  • Costs recovered may be used towards paying the fee
  • The fee itself covers the case from beginning to end. The client knows from Day 1 precisely how much the recovery will cost.

Not only do we offer a no win no fee product, but we guarantee that cases are handled by Commercial Litigation Lawyers and not claims handlers. This means that the claim does not get stuck on a conveyor belt, but that recovery is made as quickly as possible with the lawyers not making idle threats.

The Scheme is managed by Andrew Petchey, who has been in litigation – often at the High Court and Court of Appeal in London – for nearly 20 years.
