Enforcement and Debt Recovery
We pursue enforcement, litigation and the legal protection required to recover commercial receivables effectively.
An uncollected receivable is not only a legal issue for a company; it is directly a cash flow issue. We therefore approach recovery together with its commercial consequences.
We assess whether enforcement, litigation or protective measures are appropriate in a given situation and plan the process from the start.
What we do in this area
Assessing the receivable
We assess the basis of the receivable, the debtor's position and the prospects of recovery together.
Enforcement proceedings
We initiate and follow enforcement proceedings.
Litigation and protective measures
Where necessary, we use litigation and the available protective measures.
Recovery strategy
We build a workable recovery strategy that balances cost and time.
Points we take into account
- 01
Delay in collection can reduce the recoverability of a receivable over time.
- 02
Early information about the debtor's assets determines how effective the process will be.
- 03
The same route is not suitable for every receivable; strategy should be built case by case.
Common questions in this area
When an initial reminder and negotiation do not produce a result, starting proceedings is considered depending on the age of the receivable and the debtor's position.
Further legal routes are assessed in light of the debtor's position and the information available.
