Why the client needed our help
Client had a debtor that had not paid outstanding invoices of over £13,000 and the debtor was ignoring all requests for payment made by our client.
How we helped
FWJ advised the client on their options to recover the outstanding debt and proceeded with sending a stern letter before action to the defendant demanding payment with a draft winding-up petition enclosed.
The outcome
We recovered all the outstanding debt (£13k), all late payment interest due to our client and late payment compensation. Furthermore, we were able to recover all legal costs from the debtor which put our client at net-zero in terms of costs.
As credit and collection professionals ourselves, we have to be pretty discerning about the lawyers we retain so it speaks volumes that Francis Wilks & Jones have been our retained solicitors for many years now. Thoroughly professional, the firm has a wide knowledge and experience of the legalities of the debt recovery scene. Sound advice is always available and provides crucial support with some of the more difficult decisions that we have to make.
