Your Revenue is Dying in the “Big Easy.” Stop Letting it Slide.
In New Orleans, we’re famous for handshakes and hospitality. But in business, “Laissez les bons temps rouler” shouldn’t apply to your Accounts Receivable. Whether you’re moving cargo at the Port of New Orleans or running a high-volume clinic in the BioDistrict, an unpaid invoice isn’t just a “delay”—it’s a hole in your hull.
If you’re still waiting on a “check in the mail” from a client on St. Charles Ave while your own bills are due, you’re being used as an interest-free bank.
NexaCollect is the wake-up call your debtors need. We bring a high-tech, high-leverage approach to the 504 that breaks the cycle of “NOLA ghosting” without trashing your local reputation.

The Strategic Reality: 3 Reasons to Stop Waiting
1. The “Prescription” Clock is Ticking
In Louisiana, we don’t have a “Statute of Limitations”—we have Prescription. For most open accounts and business invoices, that window is a tight 3 years.
-
The Reality: If you don’t take formal, documented action before that 36-month mark, your legal right to the money effectively evaporates.
-
The Fix: We create a bulletproof, third-party paper trail on Day 1, protecting your assets before they “prescribe” into nothing.
2. Speed = Success (No Exceptions)
The data is brutal: Placing accounts earlier yields significantly better results. * The Math: An account placed at 60 days has a 90% recovery rate. Wait until 180 days? You’re lucky to see 50 cents on the dollar.
-
The Fix: Don’t wait for the third “polite reminder” to fail. Move the account to us early to maximize your cash in hand.
3. The 4.85/5.0 Reputation Guard
New Orleans is a small town. You can’t afford to be the business that hires a “junkyard dog” and ends up the subject of a viral complaint.
-
The Fix: We hold a 4.85 out of 5.0 rating because we use psychological leverage, not harassment. We allow you to protect your name on Google while still getting paid.
Our 2-Track Attack on Bad Debt
We don’t just “dial for dollars.” We use a tiered system that scales with the debtor’s resistance.
The Precision Strike (Step 1 & 2: Flat-Fee)
-
Cost: $15 per account.
-
Strategy: Official, third-party demands sent in our name. It signals that the “friendship” phase of the debt is over.
-
The Win: You amplify your internal team’s power without hiring extra staff. Most debtors pay immediately to avoid the next step. You keep 100% of the money.
The Heavy Lift (Step 3 & 4: Contingency)
-
Cost: 40% (Only if we collect).
-
Strategy: Intensive skip-tracing, phone negotiation, and credit bureau reporting (Equifax, Experian, TransUnion).
-
The Win: We hit them where it hurts—their credit score. If they still refuse to budge, our legal network (Step 4) handles the courtroom work.

The Maritime Logistics Win
-
The Debt: $26,500 for freight services near the Port.
-
The Situation: The client claimed “billing discrepancies” to stall for 5 months.
-
Our Move: We bypassed the soft talk and sent a Step 2 Flat-Fee demand attaching their signed Bill of Lading.
-
The Result: Facing a formal third-party escalation, the debtor “found” the funds and wired the full balance in 72 hours. Cost to client: $15.
The Metairie Medical Group
-
The Debt: $31,000 in aged copays and deductibles.
-
The Situation: Staff was tired of being yelled at by patients they knew personally.
-
Our Move: Our diplomatic letter series handled the “bad cop” work.
-
The Result: $19,200 recovered in under 60 days with zero negative reviews. The staff focused on patient care, not bill collecting.
FAQ: Louisiana Collection Intelligence
Q: Does wage garnishment work in New Orleans?
A: Yes, but it’s a process. You need a Judgment first. Our Step 4 legal team specializes in navigating the Orleans Parish courts to turn your “paper win” into actual cash via bank levies or garnishments.
Q: What if the debtor moved across the Lake or to another state?
A: We are licensed in all 50 states. Whether they are in Mandeville or Manhattan, our system tracks them down and enforces the debt.
Q: Can I send small accounts?
A: Absolutely. Because of our $15 flat-fee model, you can finally collect on those $100 and $200 balances that aren’t worth a lawyer’s time.
