Debt collecting
The core business taken over by Lombard Attorneys in April of 2003 was a debt collecting firm, which is currently still in operation, managed by us.
We attend to a large number of debt collection matters. Our debt collecting clients include approximately 90 medical practitioners, 3 schools and several other businesses. We have also been appointed by a large debt collecting company to handle their collections from the legal stage onwards.
Collecting debt is probably one of the most important parts of running a successful business. Few businesses can survive when their cash flow is strapped due to bad debt. We believe that a client becomes a debtor on day 31.
We can assist you with collecting outstanding debt. Our collections department is very efficient and we make it our business to ensure that you are paid what is due to you.
Administration of Deceased Estates
Administering a deceased estate can quite easily become a very daunting task, especially when the nominated executor does not have any experience in this field. This task is also made all the more difficult when the nominated executor is a family member of the deceased as there is unquestionably a lot of emotions involved after the loss of a loved one.
We are able to administer and oversee the whole process of the deceased estate in the fastest manner possible ensuring the least emotional stress to the family.
Wills and Estates
It is important for every person to have a well worded will setting out exactly his/her final wishes concerning the division of his estate and assets. A will is a legal document and therefore we are convinced that qualified attorneys are best equipped to draw up a will.
We are always ready to assist you to draw up a legally sound will and to assist in the administering of the estate.
