Court proceedings are not the only route to pursuing an unpaid business invoice.
Pre-legal recovery focuses on seeking payment through professional contact and discussion before a decision about legal action is made.
We seek a practical resolution
South Coast Collections reviews the account, contacts the business and requests payment.
Sometimes the response identifies an administrative issue. Sometimes it produces a payment proposal. Sometimes it reveals a dispute that needs further assessment.
You decide what to accept
If the business proposes instalments or a reduced settlement, we bring the proposal back to you. We do not make those decisions without your authority.
If the account remains unpaid
We explain what our activity has established and whether further advice or escalation may be appropriate.
In England and Wales, pre-action procedures encourage attempts to resolve disputes before proceedings. That does not mean every debt can be settled without court action. Official pre-action guidance
We do not provide legal advice or guarantee recovery.
