The first step is to write a formal letter to the debtor requesting payment by a<br />

certain date, stating that if the payment is not made by this date, you will take legal<br />

action. We’ll take care of the letter, sending it directly from Talbots Law to<br />

reinforce the urgency to your customer.<br />

It’s also a good idea to have evidence of their original agreement of payment - this<br />

could be a signed contract, or even a purchase order. If you can also provide<br />

evidence of the terms and conditions that they agreed to before entering into the<br />

agreement, even better. We also recommend that you find proof of the completed<br />

service or product that they received.<br />

If we can assist in recovering debt from your customer outside of court, we will.<br />

Our team of debt recovery solicitors have a diplomatic but direct approach,<br />

allowing you and your customer to discuss the situation openly while encouraging<br />

the debtor to make the payment. We try to keep things simple - after all, we know<br />

you don’t want to be involved in a long-running legal battle. Through firm<br />

negotiation, our debt law solicitors succeed in collecting late payments for our<br />

clients, giving them one less thing to worry about.<br />

What if my debtor refuses to pay?<br />

If you debtor refuses to pay their bill due to a disagreement about the quality of<br />

service or product you provided, our debt recovery solicitors will encourage direct<br />

contact with the customer and actively offer suggestions that satisfy you as well as<br />

them, working together to find compromise.<br />

If the debtor fails to cooperate and still refuses to pay, this will at least aid in<br />

strengthening your position if the case goes to court.<br />

If your customer refuses to pay because they claim they cannot afford to,<br />

we’lladvise you based on the sum owed what we see as the best way to proceed.<br />

Compromise could still be found, or a system of repayment agreed on.<br />

If you’re spending too long chasing debts from your customer or you’re involved in<br />

a dispute regarding their unpaid bills, get in touch with one of the debt recovery<br />

solicitors at Talbots Law today on 0800 118 1500.<br />
