Disputed claims.

If the debtor alleges defects, set off or retention, the evidence decides the next step.

Your information helps the firm assess urgency and the next step promptly.

Orientation

Take objections seriously

If the debtor alleges defects, non performance, set off or retention, the matter is no longer a simple unpaid invoice. Evidence must be ordered before any step.

Secure objections completely and in writing
Match evidence to each claim part
Separate set off and counterclaim

Not every dispute is ready for court

An attorney letter, court action or settlement may be sensible. The choice depends on evidence, cost risk and the strength of counterarguments.

FAQ

Short answers.

What happens after the claim check?

The firm reviews the structured information and contacts you to agree the next step.

How should I communicate urgency?

No. State the relevant date and any urgency clearly, and call the firm as well when time is short.

Can enforcement start immediately?

No. Enforcement generally requires an enforceable title such as a payment order, judgment or settlement.

Is a reminder always required before court action?

That depends on the legal basis, due date and previous communication. A reminder is often useful, but each situation is different.

If timing is urgent, state the relevant date and call the firm as well.
