Common questions
What is a letter before action?
A letter before action is a formal letter sent before starting court proceedings. It sets out the claim and gives the debtor an opportunity to respond.
Can I recover legal costs from the debtor?
This depends on the type of claim, contract terms, court track and circumstances. A provider can explain what may or may not be recoverable.
Is debt recovery worth it for small amounts?
It depends on the amount, evidence, debtor and likelihood of recovery. Sometimes a proportionate fixed-fee first step may be appropriate.
What if the debtor disputes the invoice?
A disputed debt may need legal review of the contract, correspondence and evidence before deciding the next step.
