Question: What are my legal options in Canada to collect an overdue loan or unpaid account?

Answer: If you’re owed money in Canada, you can often start with direct negotiation, then escalate to formal demand letters warning of potential litigation if payment is not made.   If you need help moving from informal requests to a court-appropriate next step, Woodcock Legal Services provides professional legal services for individuals and businesses seeking to recover outstanding debts, including advice on timing, next actions, and how to pursue payment.   In some situations, the creditor may also need to review limitation periods, whether a judgment has been issued, and related collection issues such as unpaid invoices or assignment of debts.   To discuss your situation and get a clear plan for recovery, call (613) 334-6721 at Woodcock Legal Services today.

When you are owed money, whether you are a individual person or a business, there are several legal avenues that you may explore to recover the funds due. Initially, direct negotiation is often the preferred method as such offers a chance for an amicable resolution without legal involvement; however, if this approach fails to yield the desired results, it may become necessary to engage the services of a legal professional. An experienced legal professional can assist in drafting and sending formal letters warning of pending litigation which serve as a stern reminder of financial obligations and imminent legal action.

In certain circumstances, Woodcock Legal Services may work with a collection recovery business as registered with the Collection and Debt Settlement Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. C.14, as well as other debt collection services including private investigators and licensed bailiffs.
