Launching legal proceedings
Before you start legal proceedings, it is wise to estimate whether you have a strong case. Of course we can help you with that. We can then do a Credit Check with your customer to find out whether the financial position is good enough to pay your invoice.
Tip: is there no payment for your invoice? After payment reminders and a reminder, it is best to start a debt collection process. You can sign up online and upload your invoice, so you can get started in minutes. You can start the legal procedure if the debt collection does not work.
What does legal proceedings cost?
You are conducting a lawsuit, so there are costs involved. For example, you can think of costs for:
- Court fee
- Agent’s salary
- Preparing and issuing the subpoena
- The verdict
- The bailiff during the execution process
We understand that you would like to know in advance where you stand. In some cases, we can indicate exactly what the costs will be based on an all-in rate. In other cases, we estimate these for you as well as possible, by indicating what you should take into account.
Tip: is it a claim that has never been defended? If the debtor has not indicated that the claim is unjustified, you can use our reduced all-in rate. You then pay a fixed price, so you will not be faced with surprises.
