Debt recovery lawyer
in Luxembourg
Formal notice, payment order, attachment, enforcement
The firm acts for businesses and individuals recovering debts in Luxembourg, from the first formal notice through to the court and enforcement measures needed to secure payment.
Unpaid invoices, contractual debts, sums left outstanding: depending on the nature and size of the debt, different procedures may lead to a decision — among them the conditional payment order, a simplified route available where the debt is not seriously disputed.
Where an enforceable order already exists, the firm also assists clients with the steps needed to enforce it.
Matters
Situations in which
the firm acts
-
Formal notice
A formal notice opens the file and starts interest running. Properly drafted, it is enough in a fair number of cases to obtain payment without proceedings.
-
Unpaid invoices
An invoice is easier to recover the more recent and the better documented it is. The purchase order, proof of delivery and correspondence with the debtor form the backbone of the file.
-
Conditional payment order
For debts that are certain, quantified and due, this route generally produces a decision more quickly than ordinary proceedings.
-
Obtaining an enforceable order
Where the debt is disputed, it must be established before the competent court before any enforcement step can be taken. The firm makes that case.
-
Attachment
Attachment in the hands of a third party such as a bank or employer, or attachment of goods or property: which measure to use depends on what is known of the debtor's assets.
-
Enforcement
A judgment is worth only what is actually enforced. The firm carries through the steps required until the sums due are paid.
