Legal Demands are useful tools for recovering bad debts and identifying any disputes that debtors may have about your bills. In any event, it is wise to issue a demand letter before you commence any legal action.
No commissions, no extra charges, no deductions.
For larger debts, if you authorise us to, we will negotiate and monitor a debtor repayment plan (including interest) at no additional cost to you.
If this demand turns out to be unsuccessful, we will analyse the debt and send you a written quote for further legal action. You decide whether to take the matter further. Your quote will include an estimate of the legal expenses recoverable from the debtor.
Filing a General Procedure Claim in the Magistrates Court’s is the beginning of the court process. Once the claim is served, the debtor can either confess or ignore the claim or defend the proceedings.
If the claim is undefended, you will obtain a judgment by default.
A judgment entitles you to payment of the debt, but it does not guarantee automatic recovery. If the debtor refuses to pay, you can then pursue enforcement action to compel him or her to do so.
