Legal Help With Multiple Types of Commercial Claims

Creditors may have multiple options for recovering receivables, and through the litigation process, they can protect their financial interests and minimize their losses. Our attorneys can assist with a variety of matters involving commercial collections, including:

• Uniform Commercial Code claims - We help creditors understand their rights under the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) and the remedies available to help them recover receivables. We can assist with UCC sales of goods claims and other related issues.
• Insurance collections - We provide representation for insurance companies, helping them recover outstanding premiums and address issues related to the recovery of deductibles. We also assist with surety bond claims.
• Collection of professional fees - Professionals such as certified public accountants, attorneys, or architects may need to secure payment for services rendered. In these situations, we can help professionals ensure that the terms included in their service agreements are followed correctly while avoiding potential adverse claims.
• Secured and unsecured loan enforcement - Many commercial lenders require borrowers to secure loans with collateral, such as real estate or equipment. We help lenders recover outstanding debt on secured loans, and we can assist in foreclosure or repossession proceedings when necessary. We can also help unsecured creditors determine the best ways to protect their interests, including when debtors file for bankruptcy.
• Freight collections - Shipping and freight companies may need to take steps to collect receivables while also addressing issues such as shipping fees, damage claims, or detention and demurrage. We can assist with the enforcement of contracts, bills of lading, and other fee and payment issues.
• Construction litigation - Our attorneys can help commercial contractors resolve disputes that arise related to construction projects. We can litigate claims for commercial debt recovery for unpaid invoices, breach of contract, and enforcement of mechanic's liens.
