Debt Recovery - Range of Services

We offer a full range of legal services to help you get your invoices paid and help your businesses cashflow.

It's unfair for a business to delay paying its debts for services or goods that they have received. It can put your business and jobs at risk.

As solicitors, we can offer the full range of Debt Recovery services, from sending a Letter Before Action, to instructing bailiffs on your behalf to recover the debt in person once a County Court Judgment has been obtained.

Not every option is right for every situation and can vary due to several factors including the size of debt, commercial viability to recover the debt and commercial viability of the debtor.

Our Full range of Debt Recovery Services include;

Our success rate in recovering debts is impressive and the power of a letter from solicitors is often enough to get your outstanding invoice paid without further delay.

Firstly, I would just like to thank you for your efficiency with our debt collection matters. We have worked with 5/6 in the past but you guys have delivered by far the best.
UK Expert Medical Limited, Manchester
I lived in Russia when a Claim Form was incorrectly served at my previous address despite the Claimant knowing that I was living in Russia at the time. A County Court Judgment was entered against me affecting my ability to re-mortgage my property. Pearson’s provided clear initial advice setting out the process for making an application to set aside a CCJ and then made the application on my behalf. The CCJ was then set aside and my credit record is now clear. The service Pearson’s provided was very good.
Kate Sikorsky, Debt Recovery Matter
The team understand the need for immediate action particularly in the current climate and when dealing with companies in the construction industry. Usually when we instruct you to issue a debtor with a ‘Letter Before Action’ its completed on the same day as our instruction. The advice given is clear, concise and equally important, commercially sensible.
Guttermaster Ltd, Rochdale
Pearson Solicitors worked with my company on a Third Party Debt Order, this is obtained from Court to freeze an account and recover Judgment Debt monies from this account. I am very pleased with the services provided by their Debt Recovery Team, they successfully advised and supported us at a reasonable cost. On account of their assured and professional approach I have no hesitation in recommending them to any organisation experiencing similar challenges.
Management & Accounting Services Ltd, Oldham
We used Pearson Solicitors Commercial Litigation Department to recover an outstanding debt owed to us for many years but which we were unable to recover through various other means. The debtor had a string of other creditors and even though we had a restriction against the debtor's property following a final charging order, the prospects of recovery were bleak and we were looking at writing the debt off. However, we instructed Pearson Solicitors, who managed to recover the sums due to us a lot quicker than we had expected and without resorting to further costly court proceedings. We are very happy with the service we received. We would have no hesitation in using Pearson Solicitors again and would recommend them to others.
