Our lawyers provide services to clients at every stage of debt collection procedure. Firstly, we analyse the case and seek the best solution for the client. Frequently, the more favourable solution for the client is not to go to court, but to conclude a settlement agreement in which the client’s obligation is secured by establishing a mortgage on real estate, the debtor’s submission to enforcement or the conveyance of valuable machinery or equipment. Our lawyers then prepare the necessary documents and conduct negotiations to secure the client’s interests as completely as possible. When our recommendation is to pursue debt collection through litigation – our lawyers effectively represent clients in litigation, and security and debt enforcement proceedings. The law firm has extensive experience in the collection of debts, with a portfolio of successful collection against debtors seated not only in Poland, but also against debtors located in Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic, Greece, Spain, the Netherlands, Malta, Romania, Sweden, Italy or the United Kingdom.
