For larger debts, you can authorise us to negotiate a payment plan with your debtor (with the minimum instalment amount to be decided by you).

We issue the Legal Demand

We issue the Legal Demand on lawyer’s letterhead to your debtor anywhere in Australia instantly and send you a copy.

Click here to see a sample Legal Demand.

If you authorise us to, we will invite your debtor to offer to pay the debt by instalments at no additional cost to you.

You get PAID

We electronically remit to you debtor payments within 7 days of receipt.

At any time from your client portal you can see the repayments and the outstanding amount of the debt.

If we don’t receive payment (and mostly we do), we’ll assess the available options (free of charge) and recommend the most cost-effective course of action.

We will provide a no-obligation quote for the work involved and an estimate of what costs you can recover from the debtor.

You then decide if you want to take the matter further.

Let your debtor know you mean business

Seasoned debtors know that only lawyers— not debt collectors —are licensed to take legal action to force them to pay. When you serve them with a Get PAID Legal Demand on a lawyer’s letterhead, it’s clear that you mean business.

Legal guide

Debt Collection - A Legal Guide

Our plain-English guide explains the legal process for collecting trade and commercial debts.

Why choose us

Why should you engage us instead of a traditional debt collection agency?

01.

We are more effective

Professional debtors know that debt collectors can’t take legal action. We are licensed to provide legal advice and commence court proceedings.

02.

We are cheaper

We don’t charge hefty commissions or hidden extras on top of our fixed fee. If a debt collection agent can’t collect your debt, they’ll usually hire a lawyer for you. You’ll probably end up paying both!

03.

We are local

We are Western Australia based, with offices in the Perth CBD. Local knowledge, local experience and local service to get your bad debts paid.

04.

Experience

We have been in the debt collection/credit control business for almost 40 years.

05.

Upfront Fixed Fees

We will tell you exactly what it will cost and how much you can expect to recover from the debtor, arming you with the information to decide whether a debt is worth pursuing.

06.

Convenient

Instruct us on new matters and keep track of the progress of existing matters with our easy-to-use website.

Nigel – That’s great to hear this outcome. Finally the money after all this time. Thank you 🙏 for all your efforts and advice. I really appreciate it, and I will be using you again in future.

After 6 weeks of delays, excuses, and downright lies they paid the amount in full within 36 hours of receiving the notice. Other debt collection companies (who do not have the ability to follow through with court proceedings) were quoting me recovery rates of 15-25% of the amount (so $1.5-$2k). For $44 and literally 15 minutes of my time (including initial registration), I got the same result. It is a huge relief; I am sleeping at night again.
