Are you dealing with a customer or client who isn’t paying? Are invoices systematically ignored, or does payment fail to arrive despite reminders? A debt collection lawyer from Arslan Advocaten helps you recover outstanding receivables quickly, in a legally sound and effective way.

Unpaid invoices are not only frustrating, but can also pose a serious threat to your liquidity. That is precisely why it is important to act promptly and decisively.

When should you engage a debt collection lawyer?

Many entrepreneurs first try to collect debts themselves. That is understandable, but not always wise. A debt collection lawyer is engaged, among other things, when:

• invoices remain unpaid after multiple reminders;
• the debtor disputes payment without good reason;
• large sums are involved;
• your customer is a habitual non-payer;
• You want to move forward with legal proceedings.

An attorney has more legal clout than a regular collection agency and can go straight to court.

Business debt collection: firm but professional

In business debt collection, it’s about more than just enforcing payment. Relationships, reputation, and continuity also often play a role. As debt collection attorneys, we assess:

• the legal validity of the claim;
• the contractual agreements;
• the evidentiary position;
• the possibilities for recovery.

Based on that, we determine the right strategy: amicable if possible, litigation if necessary.

From demand letter to litigation

A debt collection process often starts with a formal legal demand letter. In many cases, this already leads to payment. If payment is still not made, we can:

• start legal proceedings;
• seize assets;
• obtain a court judgment ordering payment.

We manage the entire process, so you can continue to focus on your business.

Debt collection in cases of breach of contract and non-performance

Non-payment often goes hand in hand with breach of contract. Consider customers who fail to honor agreements or suppliers who cause damage. In such cases, we look not only at collection, but also at:

• compensation for damages;
• termination of the contract;
• additional claims.

Litigation funding for debt collection

For larger or complex debt collection cases, litigation funding can provide a solution. This means that an external litigation funder pays the attorney’s fees and often also the court fee and other costs.

If litigation funding is granted, you as the client incur no costs overall. This makes litigating possible without financial risk. We are happy to assess whether your case is suitable for this.

Why a debt collection lawyer and not a collection agency?

The difference is significant. A debt collection lawyer:

• can litigate immediately;
• has in-depth legal knowledge;
• can counter complex defenses;
• thinks strategically with you about next steps.

At Arslan Attorneys you choose legal strength and results.

Debt collection lawyer costs

The costs of a debt collection lawyer depend on the case. In many cases, collection costs, interest, and (part of) the lawyer’s fees are recovered from the debtor. We always discuss in advance, transparently, what you can expect.
