DCI’s Three-Phase Recovery System
DCI offers a robust three-phase recovery system designed to efficiently retrieve company funds. Here is an overview of each phase:
Phase One: Initial Contact and Investigation
Within 24 hours of account placement, the following steps are initiated:
- The first of four letters is sent to the debtor via US Mail.
- Rigorous skip-tracing and investigation are conducted to obtain the most accurate financial and contact information for the debtors.
- Our collectors engage in direct contact with the debtor, employing various communication channels such as phone calls, emails, text messages, and faxes. Daily attempts to reach debtors persist for the first 30 to 60 days.
If all attempts to resolve the account fail, we progress to Phase Two.
Phase Two: Legal Action Preparation
Upon transitioning to Phase Two, the following actions are taken:
- A local attorney within our network drafts the first of several letters to the debtor, demanding payment on official law firm letterhead.
- The attorney or their staff initiates intensive debtor contact via telephone, in addition to the series of demand letters.
If all efforts to reach a resolution prove fruitless, DCI provides recommendations for the next steps.
Phase Three: Recommendations and Litigation
In Phase Three, we present one of two recommendations based on a thorough examination of the case:
- If recovery appears unlikely after assessing case facts and debtor assets, we recommend closing the case, with no financial obligation to our firm or the affiliated attorney.
- If litigation is advised and you choose to proceed, upfront legal costs such as court fees are required, typically ranging from $600.00 to $700.00, depending on the debtor’s jurisdiction. Our affiliated attorney will initiate a lawsuit on your behalf. If litigation attempts are unsuccessful, there is no obligation to pay our firm or the attorney.
