Debt Recovery

LAWYERS DEDICATED TO DEBT COLLECTION IN OTTAWA AND TORONTO

Debt recovery is one of Spiteri & Ursulak LLP’s main areas of practice.  We have a strong debt collection team that includes lawyers and several staff members, many of whom work solely in the area of debt collection. 

If you are owed a debt, Spiteri & Ursulak LLP has the resources, experience and specialized knowledge required to successfully recover what you are owed.

HOW DOES THE DEBT RECOVERY PROCESS WORK? 

Spiteri & Ursulak LLP will begin the debt collection process by issuing a demand letter.  Oftentimes receiving a letter from a law firm is enough to motivate the debtor to respect his or her debt.

If the demand letter is not enough, the next step is to issue a court claim.  If the matter proceeds to a hearing, one of Spiteri & Ursulak LLP’s experienced paralegals or litigators will provide you with skilled representation at court. 

If the debt is for $25,000 or less, the action will proceed in Small Claims Court.  If it is for more than $25,000, the action will proceed in the Ontario Court of Justice. 

Once a judgment is obtained, if the debtor does not have the funds to repay, an alternative way will be found to ensure that you receive your money.  For example, the debtor’s wages could be garnisheed, meaning that a percentage of each of his or her pay cheques would go toward satisfying the debt.
