In the current economic climate can you afford to write off bad debt? Swift recovery of debt is crucial to all businesses, regardless of size or industry. It can be both problematic and time consuming for businesses to try and recover debts themselves, and outsourcing to debt collection agencies is not always effective.

At Kirwans we decided to tackle the problem head-on and have launched a new debt recovery department to help clients tackle the problems associated with debt collection.

With fees starting at £30 for a straight forward, undisputed debt, we can offer a cost-effective service with the back-up of a team of fully qualified and experienced solicitors.

In many cases a letter before action is enough to put your debtors on notice that you are serious about recovery of your debt and the debt is paid promptly.

If not, we can issue proceedings and obtain Judgment for the undisputed debt on your behalf. A scale of our fees and court costs is available on request.

In the event that a debt is disputed, we have experienced solicitors on hand to take the necessary steps to pursue contested proceedings and try to resolve the matter as quickly as possible. Please note our usual hourly rates shall apply for all disputed claims.

Once Judgment has been obtained and your debtor is still refusing to pay, we can assist with various methods of enforcement to ensure that any monies are paid back to you.
