Pre Sue/Status Reports

Court action is a very effective tool in the recovery process but creditors often want the assurance of knowing their decree will be enforceable. Our pre-sue reports can provide information on a debtor's circumstances to allow an informed judgement to be made on the effectivenes of future recovery action. This allows the creditor to assess the capability of the debtor to discharge his liability and avoid the possibility of "throwing good money after bad." Pre-sue reports can identify assets and income that can be attached or arrested once decree is obtained.

Through the use of the most comprehensive data sources available on the market and our own extensive experience we provide an effective client driven service for those considering their recovery options..
