OUR DEBT RECOVERY STRATEGY

Our strategy is first and foremost, to explore alternative dispute resolution. If this fails, we will pursue the debtor individual or company as well as the latter’s directors and officers, from demand letters to aggressive litigation (if need be).

This is with a view to seeking a lien, seizure and or sale of assets.

Debt Recovery Litigation

As members of the Ghana Bar Association, Legal Practitioners at our firm maintain and partner with a national network of experienced litigation law firms. When a debt is not paid, litigation is the last step.

Our affiliate company, Wetrace, works with retired and experienced officers of National Security, BNI, CID and current intelligence officers to search for assets the debtor has, to determine if litigation is warranted. Once this process is complete, we will forward the information to you for approval.

The above approach and strategy will increase debt collection recovery percentages and reduce back-end legal costs, which results in a positive effect on your bottom-line profits. As your local lawyers our mission is to provide easy access to legal services for Ghanaians. One way we do this is by running a free and brief legal advice consultation. We also undertake work on legal aid.
