Outsourced Law Firm Collections
Everyone deserves to be compensated fairly for their work, especially when so much passion is put into the work being done. That’s why Kollect’s industry-standout law firm collections service is custom-built to support legal practices that are struggling to recover overdue accounts. Hiring a third-party collection service for law firms can be a game-changer for practices whose in-house staffing and resources are spread thin and who are having difficulty collecting on old invoices. With our collection services, we only get paid if you get paid.
Law Firm Collections Services That Prioritize Your Reputation and Revenue
Kollect’s primary focus as a collections agency is supporting operators in the legal space, from successful civil litigators to top criminal defense firms, so we intimately understand how your practice depends on a delicate balance of professionalism, integrity, and trust. All three of these non-negotiable tenets can make it very challenging to navigate the awkward but sometimes necessary process of pursuing delinquent payments from a former client.
Our comprehensive client management services are designed to prevent collections from ever occurring in the first place. Unfortunately, before hiring us, many firms were left with outstanding client balances after completing cases. Following up for payment with delinquent accounts from former clients can be uncomfortable, time-consuming, and sometimes contentious, and sending clients to collections risks triggering retaliatory bar complaints.
The Kollect process isn’t just designed to be effective in recouping your money. It’s also designed to be ethical, respectful, and discreet. Our collections services will be tailored to your firm’s exact needs and business style and then carried out with the utmost professionalism and a focus on maintaining dignity for all parties involved, all while operating as an extension of your team, not some hostile third party with no regard for your clients and hard-earned reputation.
Hire Law Firm Collections Services That Work for You
Unlike generic collections agencies that merely offer services to various companies in different industries, our business model revolves around serving our partners in the legal arena as seamlessly and effectively as possible.
We intimately understand the legal space, not just the collections industry. That’s how we can offer terms and perks that actually work for our clients and their bottom lines.
If you hire us only for collections only, and not client management or accounting, we charge a 25% commission fee for all monies returned to the firm.
If you’re paying us our fixed monthly rate for our client management services, we consider a balance “collection eligible” only if it’s from a FORMER client you no longer represent, and the balance exceeds $2,000.00. If the balance is from a former client but is less than $2,000.00, we will collect it free of commission as a complimentary service to our client management. Any balance from current clients, regardless of how delinquent, will also be collected free of commission charge, as again, this is part of our standard client management services.
Commission fees for client management clients are reduced from 25% to 20%
Our experienced agents specialize in resolving disputes and collecting outstanding balances, whether from individuals, large companies, or even other law firms.
Kollect – Your Trusted Partner for Outsourced Law Firm Collections
When you make the decision to hire law firm collections services, you’re doing more than simply outsourcing a task. You’re maximizing your staff time, protecting your revenue stream, and investing in your peace of mind. When you work with a dedicated, accessible, full-service collections partner like Kollect, you can rest assured you’re getting a quality return on this investment.
What we’ve found in our years of doing this successfully is that many attorneys who attempt to collect on past-due accounts themselves often end up spending valuable hours chasing down valid contact info for ex-clients and leaving unreturned messages. They use valuable time that could be spent focusing on prepping their next case.
Worse, they end up dealing with petty payment disputes and tiptoeing around bad-faith threats of bar complaints or other frustrating retaliatory actions.
It almost goes without saying that these tedious and uncomfortable hours spent pursuing collections rarely have a good return for attorneys. At Kollect, our unique service model aims to lift these burdens entirely.
When you put Kollect to work for your firm, things happen quickly and seamlessly. Your clients won’t hear from some ominous collection agency; they’ll hear from a professional asset working on behalf of your firm. Someone who has taken the time to understand your mission, your unique story, and your clientele.
We go beyond mere consistency with your brand’s voice; we act as a member of your legal practice’s core team, using your email domain, internal communication protocols, etc. When you’re ready to get started, reach out to learn more about what the team at Kollect can do for you.
