Hopkins Solicitors: Help with chasing overdue accounts to keep your business healthy in the current economic climate

Problems with slow payers?

Cash flow is the lifeblood of every business, no matter what the size. At Hopkins we know that chasing slow payers can be a difficult, slow and time consuming process, especially in the current economic climate, when you need all the business you can get. Unresolved business debts can create long lasting financial problems, especially when they turn disputed or your customers cannot pay you, due to their own cash flow problems.

We have a specialist debt collection team, which acts for both commercial clients and individuals in Nottingham, Mansfield and the surrounding areas, including overseas clients. We provide a quick and cost effective way to recover your accounts - allowing you to focus your time and energy on running your business.

The stages of the debt recovery process

Our years of experience in chasing overdue invoices suggest that the majority of accounts can be collected by a phone call and/or letter from a Solicitor, without the need for Court action. Hopkins offers this service for a fixed price regardless of the amount of debt we recover for you, and we will always try to recover both late interest and our costs.

After this, we will advise you of the best, most cost effective way forward, depending on the amount outstanding, and of course the reasons for non-payment. In most cases we will charge a percentage of the debt recovered, these charges will be discussed and agreed with you before we undertake any work on your behalf. We aim to make the Debt Recovery process as simple as possible.

Court action

If we haven't been able to collect the debt so far, it may be appropriate and necessary to pass your case onto one of our litigation experts who can advise you on recovering your debts through the Court. For example, by issuing a Statutory Demand or obtaining a County Court or High Court judgment against your debtor.

An exceptional success rate

We pride ourselves on our exceptional success rate, and the fact that we always strive to meet our clients expectations. We get results, cost effectively, which is why local businesses continue to use our services and have no hesitation in recommending us.

Claiming interest on late payments

Did you know that it is also possible to claim interest and a late compensation payment on top of the money that you are already owed? Hopkins will always endeavour to recover your outstanding debts plus all the late payment charges. These can vary so please contact us for further details.

Outsourcing

We can also collect your current and 30 day invoices in your name, and then escalate the action when necessary to our debt recovery department. Please contact us for further information about this service.
