Addressing the Unique Challenges of Law Firm Debt

Law firm debt often arises from a variety of circumstances, including hourly billing that goes unpaid, contingency fees that become due upon settlement or judgment, and unbilled disbursements. The sensitive nature of the lawyer-client relationship can make direct debt collection by the firm challenging, potentially impacting future business. Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd acts as an extension of your firm, employing a professional and discreet approach to debt recovery that respects these relationships. We are adept at navigating the ethical considerations stipulated by the Law Society of Kenya (LSK), ensuring all recovery actions are compliant and maintain your firm's reputation.

Our Comprehensive Debt Recovery Process for Legal Practices

Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd offers a robust and comprehensive debt recovery process specifically designed for law firm debt. Our engagement typically begins with a thorough review of your outstanding accounts, including client agreements, invoices, and payment histories. We then implement a phased recovery strategy, starting with professional demand letters drafted on your behalf or in collaboration with your firm, clearly outlining the debt owed and the consequences of non-payment. For more complex cases, our skip tracing experts will locate any debtors who have moved, utilizing a range of investigative techniques. Our asset search capabilities help identify tangible assets that can be pursued for recovery. Where appropriate, we facilitate structured payment plans or engage in negotiation to reach mutually agreeable settlements, always aiming for the swiftest and most cost-effective resolution, compliant with civil procedure.
