Cost-Effective Recovery: The $15 Newport Strategy
We understand that Newport Beach margins require precision. Most agencies take a massive cut of your easiest recoveries; we let you keep them.
-
Phase I: The $15 Fixed-Fee: Best for early-stage delinquency (30–90 days). For a one-time fee of $15 per account, we deploy a professional sequence of demands. When the customer pays, they pay directly to you, and you keep 100% of the funds.
-
Phase II: Performance-Based Contingency: For aged or high-resistance debt, we work on a 20%–40% contingency basis. Our philosophy is simple: if we don’t recover your money, you don’t pay us a dime. No recovery, no fee.

The Newport Field Guide: Navigating Local Recovery
Newport Beach is currently navigating a sophisticated economic landscape. With Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian serving as a Magnet-recognized anchor and the city’s high-net-worth districts like Corona del Mar and Newport Coast setting a high bar for service, traditional “shout-and-pout” collection tactics are a liability.
In a community where business is often done on a first-name basis at the Newport Harbor Yacht Club or over lunch near Fashion Island, a “rogue collector” can trigger a review-bomb that lingers on your Google Business Profile for years.
This is why we position our partners as Account Reconciliation Concierges. We don’t just demand cash; we solve the “why” behind the delay. To protect your brand, we record all calls and perform random quality reviews. This ensures that every interaction reflects the professional excellence your Newport Beach clients expect.

Current California Collection Rules
Operating in Newport Beach requires a surgical understanding of the Rosenthal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (RFDCPA).
-
Rosenthal Act Expansion (SB 1286): As of the current cycle, California has expanded consumer-style protections to covered commercial debts under $500,000. This means B2B collectors must now follow the same anti-harassment rules once reserved for individuals.
-
AI Compliance (2026): New California laws regarding the use of AI in healthcare and legal fields mean your recovery partner must ensure that any automated outreach is fully compliant and transparent.
-
Statute of Limitations: California law generally maintains a four-year limit on written contracts. In Newport’s high-value economy, moving an account to a professional third party after 90 days is essential for maintaining a high recovery probability.
