I am a General B in CA and specialize in Restoration and mitigation work. We have over 100k in accounts receivable all of which Is completed work. Homeowners are waiting for insurance but insurance is dragging feet. Can I sue ? Can I send to collections ?
If you should sue or wait, depends upon in part the contract documents (HIC, Building Permit records, invoices and releases, notices, etc.). You may want to consult with a construction law attorney before pursuing a remedy.
Hi Nick - I typically send a demand letter to the debtor on my clients' behalf. If that doesn't result in recovery of monies, then we will prepare and file a lawsuit. Kevin Meade, Esq. - 949-502-7715 - kmeade@TALGlaw.com
You should always let a certified collection agency try to resolve and collect your delinquent accounts prior to filing a law suit. The agency can collect the accounts without any upfront cost to you and work on an agreeable contingency bases. Anything not collected can then be determined if suit is warranted or not. Feel free to contact me with any specific questions, Best regards
