Hi all. I need some help. I'm an Independent Contractor and I have a client who has not paid a large sum of money to me. (This was spread out over multiple projects, and the grand total is over $10k!). Anyway, this has been dragging on for nearly 1 year, and I'm at the point where I need to either sue this client, or send the entire matter over to a collection agency.
I wanted to know if anyone has any recommendations on a Collection Agency, or an attorney specializing in debt-collection.
I have signed agreements from this client acknowledging that they owe me this money, and that they'd pay minimum amounts, etc. and although they have made a few payments in the past, they have not paid anything in months. It appears that now I have to take some action.
The sum is too great for small claims court, and there are numerous agencies out there that handle this type of thing, but I want one that is reputable and will cost me the least amount of $$$ in the long run.
Any advice would be welcomed, thanks!
