WE ENSURE RECOVERY WHILE UPHOLDING GOODWILL.
TYPES OF DEBT WE RECOVER ON OVERDUE ACCOUNTS ARE:
Commercial loans and judgments across the board; Rented property debts; Retail and department store accounts; Unpaid invoices
Bad debt should be handed over after 90 days have lapsed. Many creditors have already broken the terms and conditions of the credit granted at this stage, causing the relationship to sour. Generally, all forms of communication have been ignored, or the debtor has come up with a string of excuses or broken promises, which typically have not materialized, causing the creditors to express their concerning lack of response for payment. A collection problem exists, and the account should be handed over for debt collection after the prescribed 90-day period.
The Longer The Outstanding Amount Is Overdue-The Higher The Risk And Chances Of Non-Recovery.

CIVIL LAW deals with behavior that constitutes an injury to an individual or other private party, such as a corporation. Examples are defamation (including libel and slander), breach of contract, negligence resulting in injury or death, and property damage.
CRIMINAL LAW is the body of law that deals with crime and the legal punishment of criminal offenses. The state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt. The burden of proof: ...
"The difference between civil and criminal law turns on the difference between two different objects which law seeks to pursue - redress or punishment." Civil law seeks a remedy (for example, compensation) for the injured party. In other words, criminal law seeks to punish an offense.
