Sales of Goods or Services

Many of our clients sell either goods or services. Goods can be almost any type of product, whether you make it, distribute it or sell it to the end-user. Service providers are people who provide something you can’t hold but has value. Examples of service providers are accountants, attorneys, technology consultants, advertising agencies, real estate professionals, loan arrangers, and contractors. We effectively service clients who have cases between $15,000 and $2,000,000.

Can Greenbaum Law Group Collect Your Money?

We are a quality law firm, not a collection agency or a mill operation. We Sue! We don’t send whiny letters and don’t usually even contact the debtors before we start the lawsuit unless required by law. We don’t make repetitive phone calls and have no phone collectors.

Documentation

Most cases involving sales of goods or services have some form of written documentation. This can include email, contracts, correspondence, invoices, billings, a statement of the account, or admissions of the debt. These are the documents that we present for settlement to the court, together with the testimony of the witnesses, that win your case. We have a full staff of qualified and experienced Lawyers and Legal Assistants. We use all the legal remedies the law allows to collect your money.

Done Paying for Hourly Lawyers? Choose Contingency

We offer our services on a contingency fee basis. We recover more money, more often than other attorneys or collectors. If you are a contingent fee client and we don’t recover, there is no fee for our services. The out-of-pocket filing fees for the court enforcement documents, motions, hearings, and liens and the fee for the process servers are generally small.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is All Debt Collected In The Same Way?

No. Every debt has its own challenges and Greenbaum Law Group takes the right approach for each situation. Unpaid sales of goods or services are handled differently than loans, construction debts, judgments, arbitration awards, or out-of-state and foreign judgments. Our team knows which strategies work best in each scenario and we put them into action fast.

What Are My Rights As A Creditor Under State And Federal Law?

As a commercial creditor, you’re entitled to use the full range of legal remedies, not just demand letters or endless phone calls. You have the right to file suit, secure judgments and enforce those judgments. At Greenbaum Law Group, we don’t waste time. We use every legal tool available to get you paid as quickly as possible.

What Initial Steps Can A Business Take Before Resorting To Legal Action?

The best place to start is with documentation. Contracts, invoices, emails, statements of account and even admissions of debt all strengthen your case. When you work with us, we’ll make sure your file is complete and ready so we can move aggressively toward recovery.

Is It Effective To Send Demand Letters?

In most cases, no. Debt collection isn’t about sending “whiny letters” that debtors ignore. Our philosophy is different: we litigate as soon as we are legally allowed to do so. The only time we send demand letters is when the law requires it.

What Should I Know About Negotiated Settlements?

Settlements are part of our strategy when they make sense, but always with your approval. Our attorneys handle negotiations directly, making sure any agreement benefits you and fits into a larger plan for getting your money.

When Should I File A Lawsuit?

The sooner, the better. Greenbaum Law Group moves quickly, often filing suit immediately once we are legally able. Speed matters in collections and our litigation-first approach is designed to put maximum pressure on debtors.

How Does Judgment Enforcement Work?

Winning a judgment is just the beginning. Collecting requires aggressive enforcement through liens, asset searches and pursuing debtors a when necessary. At Greenbaum Law Group, we use every enforcement tool the law provides to make sure you recover what you’re owed.
