Legal Forwarding/Litigation Services

Although, the vast majority of the accounts handled through our office are resolved short of outside legal handling, for those accounts that require more advanced steps in the collection cycle, and, as part of our “full-service” approach, Amalgamated provides exceptional outside Legal services in a pre-litigation, litigation and post-judgment capacity.

  • SPECIALIZATION – We maintain a nationwide network of CLLA (Commercial Law League of America) attorneys – which ensures that your files are being handled by attorneys that specialize in commercial collection law. Additionally, they are all licensed, bonded, insured and adhere to a strict Code of Ethics.
  • COST SAVINGS – due to the lengthy partnerships we have maintained within our attorney network – some for over 20-25 years – and the volume we do with firms because of our size, we have the ability to negotiate reduced rates on legal files. Therefore, your overall costs are far less through us, than many other firms, saving you a  considerable amount in Legal expenses.
  • STRICTLY CONTINGENT FEES – Through those partnerships, we have also negotiated deals with the vast majority of our attorneys to work on a strictly contingent fee basis. This means the attorney works the file through the entire litigation process and you pay nothing (with the exception of a minimal court cost advance) until and unless it is collected. When paying an attorney on a contingency, you can be assured that the attorney is always working towards getting the file collected as quickly as possible for you.
  • ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL – Through our staff of professional legal correspondents and the use of our computerized follow up system, we are able to monitor all files sent to our network of attorneys to ensure they are updated in accordance with our requirements and, to scrutinize the attorneys to ensure that the best possible service and results are being provided to our clients.   This provides our clients with the administrative control over their accounts through a single point of contact – Amalgamated!
  • POST JUDGMENT PROCEEDINGS– While most attorneys will promise to get you to the point of Judgment, unless the Judgment is able to be collected, it is only worth the paper it’s written on. Being Commercial Collection Law specialists, our attorneys are equipped to be able to handle your accounts under an “end-to-end” process, from initiating the lawsuit through post-judgment execution proceedings, in order to do everything possible to satisfy the Judgment.
