Commercial debt collection refers specifically to obtaining money owed by one business to another business, or B2B. The methods of commercial collection may be different than with consumers, depending on the resources and available assets of the debtor business and the type of business in question.

The attorneys on our staff who practice commercial debt collection assist creditors in pursuing outstanding funds, the enforcement of rights under liens, and the recovery of court-ordered judgments. We may also assist clients in repossessing the real and personal property of insolvent borrowers. We work together with our clients to achieve the highest level of debt recovery and receivable management success.

We are available to perform the following commercial debt collection services for our business clients:

• Advanced skip tracing and asset location
• Accounts receivable
• Deficiency accounts (real estate and auto)
• Retail accounts
• Commercial unlawful detainer judgments
• Breach of contract
• Deficiency accounts and past due notices

You may immediately think that commercial debt collection attorneys merely file suit against the borrower in an effort to collect the funds owed to you. However, we can – and often do get involved in a variety of other ways. These may include:

• Standard commercial debt collection procedures - If the debtor has simply been unresponsive, the attorney may start with standard techniques to collect the money by making a telephone call and/or sending a demand letter. Sometimes contact from a lawyer is sufficient enough to get the borrower's attention.
• Alternative resolution - Alternative resolution may entail negotiations, arbitration or mediation. The expertise of an experienced negotiator can resolve a disputed matter. Retaining an attorney who specializes in debt negotiations can get results. Depending on the circumstances, an attorney may recommend arbitration or mediation as a less costly alternative to litigating the matter. Not only will you benefit with alternative debt resolution by not incurring the expense of litigation, but the matter will likely be resolved much quicker.
• Litigation - Pursuing the borrower through the courts may be the best avenue, particularly if the dollar amount is substantial and the borrower is not cooperating. Contact us to measure the cost benefit. It may be possible to collect legal fees from the debtor, in addition to the original amount owed.
• Enforce collection - Attorneys can assist in pursuing borrowers who have failed to repay a debt after signing a promissory note or personal guarantee. Also, if you already secured a judgment against the debtor but have been unable to collect, an attorney can assist in pursuing post judgment remedies.

If all attempts to amicably resolve the matter are unsuccessful, one of our experienced and reputable attorneys will provide his or her recommendation before proceeding further. He or she will offer advice based on the likelihood of collection and the potential costs involved. Ultimately the decision will be yours to make.
