There are few business owners that relish the task of debt collecting.  Time-consuming, frustrating and stressful, securing overdue invoice payments is perhaps the least attractive part of commerce.

What is the Debt Collection Process in Ireland?

One of the challenges of demanding payment of unpaid invoices is that often the commercial relationship needs to be preserved.  Therefore, the first step is to contact the debtor yourself as soon as the invoice becomes overdue to discover why payment has not been made.  Often there is a simple explanation and the matter is resolved at this point.

If the debt remains unpaid, our team will send a letter demanding payment.  Reluctant payers frequently find a letter from a lawyer with the threat of court action enough to motivate them to make prompt payment.

Should payment not be forthcoming, we can commence court proceedings against the debtor.  If such action becomes necessary, we will support and represent you through the court and cost process.  If required, we can commence European Enforcement Orders and/or European Orders for Payment proceedings if the person or entity that owes you money is located in another EU member state (with the exception of Denmark).
