Q. Why are all lawsuits first filed in New York Federal Courts?

A. We assign the legal department or attorneys to first have a lawsuit in New York as it is the fastest for an Automatic Judgement (based on your agreement). This means that your client cannot respond to the lawsuit with their lawyer since there is a Confession of Judgment attached in your contracts. After this is completed the Law firm assigned in the client’s state will DOMESTICATE the Judgement in their State (saving time and being more effective).

Q. What is the exact timeline of the Asset recovery?

A. When your client is unresponsive and has missed debits, you will send the file to us. Upon the arrival of the file our automated system will send your client notifications that way they are aware that their file is being transferred to us before litigation takes place, the client does have 24 hours to respond to you before we officially pick up the case.

Q. What happens if the client calls and wants to settle or go on a payment plan before the Judgement takes place but lawsuits been initiated?

A. The client unfortunately still has to pay the default fee and additional legal fees which are in your contract. The client has a week or so to call the assigned law firm so that their attorney files a “Stipulation”. Once an agreement takes place the client notarizes the agreement and also the Stipulation which is then filed with the Federal Court. This would avoid the client from the getting their banks frozen, which ultimately becomes a process because the bank can take weeks or so to unfreeze their account.
