DEBT LITIGATION & RECOVERY SERVICES

Stress-free and professional debt litigation services

As a professional debt collection agency in Australia, eCollect has assisted many small and large businesses in commercial litigation and debt recovery. Depending on the circumstances, there are benefits to businesses instigating legal actions for recovering payments off their clients. However, given the complexity, time required, and commercials involved many just don’t start the process. This is where eCollect stands out from other debt collection agencies. We not only help our clients with all the prelitigation work, but we also help to provide them with all the information they need to decide whether they should take a legal course of action, as part of our debt litigation and recovery services.

Dealing directly with solicitors while also dealing with a debt collection agency increases the overall cost of a recovery and litigation process. At the same time, it also slows down the pace of the process, as clients have to explain all the details of the debt to both parties. It is for these reasons, eCollect provides its clients access to the E C Legal litigation services, to cuts down fees and the time required to deal with different entities.

What are eCollect's responsibilities?

The eCollect account managers will do a large amount, if not all, of the prelitigation work. This involves locating the debtor, making the initial contact and demand, attempting to negotiate payment, making an assessment of any issues that might make collection difficult and providing feedback on all of this to our client.

The eCollect account managers work entirely on a no recovery, no charge basis. If you engage lawyers to do this, the cost would certainly be several hundred dollars and could possibly be several thousand dollars. Our experience is that lawyers aren’t particularly good at these things. They’re good at running cases in the courts as part of their debt collection litigation services but often not so strong on the nonlegal tasks surrounding this.

What are E C Legal's responsibilities
