DEBT RECOVERY

 

In the current climate of the COVID 19 pandemic, many businesses and individuals find themselves facing financial difficulties and needing assistance. 

At Nowland Lawyers, we have seen a significant increase in the area of debt recovery as well as client’s needing assistance to discharge their debts through facilitating payments plans. 

Due to the current climate, there has been a significant shift in the previous hardline approach to debt recovery with a greater emphasis now on establishing a dialogue between creditors and debtors. 

At Nowland Lawyers we have always placed emphasis on establishing such a dialogue. In our years of experience such an approach achieves the best outcome for our client’s and reduces their legal costs significantly.  To date, 98% of our client received total discharge of their debt without needing to proceed to Court.

Our APPROACH

 

KNOWLEDGE IS EVERYTHING

At Nowland Lawyers we place importance in understanding your business operations.  During the initial consultation we will discuss with you in detail, the nature of your business operations including but not limited to, the businesses history, whether the business employs contacts and/or terms and conditions in its operations, the history and relationship between your business and the debtor or creditor and obtain copies of all relevant communication and documentation.   

We offer a wholistic service to our clients including contract reviews and/or reviews of your terms & conditions. 

WHAT IF I’M THE DEBTOR?

At Nowland Lawyers we also work with client’s who find themselves and/or their business in financial distress unable to discharge their debts within the required deadlines or having received a “letter of demand” for payment.  We work with our client’s to establish a meaningful dialogue with the creditor, and facilitate payment plans. You may think, if I can’t afford to pay my current debts, how can I afford to pay solicitor/legal fees.  At Nowland Lawyers, we believe is putting the humanity back into the law.  We pride ourselves on going above and beyond in our services to our clients.  We will always do our upmost to assist where we can and if in the circumstances we don’t have capacity, we will align you with the right services who can assist you.
