Protect Your Capital in the Capital City
Montgomery is the engine of the South. From the legislative halls on Dexter Avenue to the massive automotive supply chain radiating from Hyundai Boulevard, our city is built on movement. Parts move, legislation moves, and money should move.
But for too many River Region businesses, cash flow is stalled.
You are likely dealing with a unique mix of clients: stable government employees, volatile manufacturing sub-contractors, and a transient military population from Maxwell AFB. Traditional collection agencies don’t understand this mix. They apply a “one-size-fits-all” aggression that damages your reputation in a city where connections matter.
If you are paying 40-50% contingency fees on every invoice, you are paying a “traffic tax” on your own revenue. You need a partner who understands the logistics of getting paid in Montgomery.
The “Open Account” Trap: Why Alabama Law Demands Speed
If you are sitting on unpaid B2B invoices or “handshake” service agreements, time is your enemy.
Alabama has a critical legal distinction that most out-of-state agencies miss:
-
The 3-Year Cliff: Under Alabama Code (§ 6-2-37), the statute of limitations for “open accounts”—which covers most unwritten B2B transactions, medical bills, and credit accounts—is just 3 years.
-
The Written Advantage: Written contracts under seal have a 10-year window.
If your current agency is dragging its feet on an unwritten B2B debt, they are walking you toward a cliff. Once that 3-year mark hits, your legal leverage evaporates. We prioritize these accounts immediately to beat the clock.
A “Just-In-Time” Solution for Your A/R
Just like the automotive plants that power our economy, we believe in lean, efficient processes. Why pay for a heavy-handed lawsuit when a precise demand letter will do?
Phase 1: The Assembly Line (Fixed Fee)
-
Step 1 & 2 ($15/Account): We act as your third-party authority. We send professional, compliant demand letters. This clears out the “slow pays” and “forgetful” clients for the cost of a lunch at The Alley. You keep 100% of the recovered funds.
Phase 2: The Heavy Lifting (Contingency)
-
Step 3 (40% Contingency): If the fixed-fee nudge doesn’t work, our expert team takes over. We use advanced skip-tracing to locate transient debtors (critical for military/student populations) and negotiate payment. No recovery, no fee.
-
Step 4 (Legal Forwarding): We manage the litigation process if a judgment is required to garnish wages or levy assets.
Case Study: The Automotive Supplier Squeeze
A Tier-2 manufacturing supplier in the Montgomery Industrial Park was facing a liquidity crunch. They had $55,000 in receivables from smaller sub-contractors who were delaying payment due to supply chain hiccups. The supplier couldn’t afford to sue these partners—they needed them for future contracts.
The Strategy: We deployed our Step 2 (Third-Party Demand) service. We sent diplomatic but firm letters to the AP departments, referencing the specific invoices and the impending 3-year statute of limitations on open accounts.
The Result: The supplier recovered $42,000 in just 35 days. The Economics: Instead of paying a $16,800 contingency fee (40%), they paid less than $900 in fixed fees. They saved their margins and their relationships.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are you licensed to collect in Alabama?
A: Yes. We are fully compliant. While Alabama doesn’t require a specific “collection agency” board license for out-of-state agencies soliciting by mail, we maintain all necessary business privilege licenses required by the Alabama Department of Revenue to operate legally. We know the rules so you don’t have to worry.
Q: How do you handle debtors from Maxwell AFB?
A: Military collections require specific knowledge of the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA). You cannot just sue a deployed soldier. We have specialized workflows to contact military personnel respectfully and through proper channels, ensuring compliance while securing payment.
Q: Can you help with “handshake” B2B deals?
A: Yes, but speed is vital. As mentioned, Alabama allows only 3 years to sue on these debts. We use our Step 3 investigation team to gather “proof of debt” (emails, texts, delivery logs) to substantiate the claim before the legal window closes.
Q: Do you collect medical debt in Montgomery?
A: Absolutely. From practices near Baptist Health to independent dental offices, we handle patient balances with care. We know that in a city this size, a bad Google review travels fast. Our diplomatic approach protects your name while recovering your revenue.
