What started in representing banks in collection
matters, evolved into the collection of debts
owed to our clients paid. While our core business
has always been representing banks, we represent
small sole proprietorships to multi-million
dollar corporations. We have experience in matters
ranging from repossession and disposition of
collateral, to domesticating and collecting
a foreign judgments in Texas, as well as domesticating
a Texas judgment in another State, and having
the judgment abstracted and recorded in that
State.
When a client consults with
us about a collection matter, we strive not only to collect the debt, but also
advise our clients about their business practices to minimize the risk of non-payment.
Our clients are reminded that the collection of a debt starts with the first contact
with the customer.
Almost any lawyer
can obtain a judgment for a client when suing on a Promissory Note, Contract,
Lease or open account. We never forget that is the actual collection of money
that our client desires. There is nothing more rewarding to us than sending a
check to our clients.
Successful collection
often depends upon information obtained about
the debtor, and how that judgment is handled
after entry. We take those extra steps to acquire
as much knowledge about the debtor as possible.
We search public records, filing with the Secretary
of State, divorce filings, and other sources
of information about the debtor. We are not
"glass house" attorneys. When economically
feasible, we get out of the office and drive
by the debtor's place of business and/or residence.
