Debt Recovery
Chasing unpaid invoices can put serious pressure on your business. That’s why Roach Pittis offers a cost-effective and transparent debt recovery service, designed to help you regain control of your cash flow, without the high legal costs that often hold businesses back.
We know how important cash flow is to your success, so we’ve created a straightforward process with clear, fixed fees. You stay in control of how much you want to invest at each stage, and we keep you fully informed from start to finish.
Our Three-Stage Process
Stage 1 – Pre-Litigation (Letter Before Action)
We send a formal letter to your debtor, demanding immediate payment. This includes a warning of possible court or insolvency proceedings. We follow up where necessary with direct communication.
Most undisputed debts are resolved at this early stage, saving time and costs.
Stage 2 – Issuing a County Court Claim
If the debt remains unpaid, we’ll issue a claim with the County Court. Once served, the debtor has 14 days to respond. If they fail to do so, we apply for Judgment in Default and move to enforcement.
Stage 3 – Enforcement
Even with a County Court Judgment, enforcement is often required to secure payment. We’ll help you choose the right option based on the circumstances, from High Court Enforcement to Attachment of Earnings or Charging Orders.
If the debt is disputed at any stage, we’ll provide clear advice on your options and next steps, including an estimate of any additional legal costs.
Optional ‘No Win, No Fee’ Support
In some cases, we may act on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis, so you only pay if we successfully recover your debt. If you’d like to explore this option, just let us know.
