Effective Strategies for Recovering Outstanding Debt
When a business or a professional provides goods or services, full payment is expected. If a debtor fails to pay, bounces checks, or makes you wait a long time for past-due payments, your business can suffer. Mr. Brennan, an experienced collections attorney, can pursue legal action against that debtor, whether it is an individual or another company.
How to Seek Judgments Against Debtors in Sugar Land
The Brennan Law Firm, LLC often initiates engagement with debtors by writing a letter. In some cases, this is enough to prompt payment from the debtor. However, there are some that will only pay after they are sued. As a Sugar Land collections attorney, Mr. Brennan can seek judgment through civil litigation in the Justice of the Peace courts for smaller amounts. Larger cases must be resolved in District Court, the County Court (or County Court at Law), or Federal District Court.
Key Steps When Seeking a Judgment:
- Ensure that the debt is well documented
- File the lawsuit within the applicable statute of limitations for breach of contract
- Have evidence and witnesses for large debts
After you obtain your judgment, the debtor may use other tactics to avoid paying the money you are owed. In some states outside Texas, it is possible to garnish the debtor’s wages, and in Texas, it may be possible to garnish a bank account. Some debtors may file a bankruptcy petition to avoid paying or to avoid garnishment. Serving Fort Bend County and the Houston metropolitan area, The Brennan Law Firm, LLC takes the necessary actions to maximize recovery, including representing defrauded creditors in bankruptcy court to prevent debts from being discharged.
