Why New York Is Different (and Why We’re Built for It)
-
NYC license required: Our collectors are authorized to collect from NYC residents under DCWP rules.
-
3-year statute of limitations (most consumer credit): We triage by account age to avoid barred actions and wasted legal spend.
-
Debt substantiation within 60 days: Collections pause until written proof is provided (23 NYCRR 1.4).
-
Consumer judgment interest = 2%: Recovery modeling reflects New York’s reduced rate for consumer debt.
-
NYC Small Claims up to $10,000: Practical legal pathway for lower balances when appropriate.
Bottom line: New York compliance isn’t optional. Our policies, scripts, and documentation flows are designed for NYC/NY.

Flexible Start — Pick Your Step
-
Step 1 — First-party reminders (5 touches) — Fixed-fee. Best for very new balances/reactivation.
-
Step 2 — Third-party written demands (5 letters) — Fixed-fee. Best for 45–120-day balances with documentation ready.
-
Step 3 — Third-party collections (calls + digital) — Contingency. Best for older or higher-balance accounts.
-
Step 4 — Legal collections (your approval) — Contingency. Best for documented, litigable accounts.
Fixed-fee steps: payments go directly to you; no added charges. Legal steps: only nominal court filing fees upfront (reimbursed upon recovery).
