Law Offices of John Friedman

If you have provided a valuable product or service to a customer, you have a right to receive payment. It can be very frustrating and financially damaging to any business owner when clients refuse or fail to make timely payment for the services they have received.

As business owners ourselves, we understand the frustration of business professionals and business owners that are struggling to collect debts for the services they have provided. If you need an experienced commercial collections attorney to work on your behalf, actively seek the compensation you have earned, and pursue the best possible result in your case, contact John Friedman.

The office of John L. Friedman practices law in Baltimore, Maryland and (Independent City).

Our entire staff is dedicated to helping clients with their legal matters regarding:

  • Collections
  • Debtor and Creditor Rights
  • Commercial Transactions

Debt collection involves the pursuit of payment on debts owed by consumers or businesses. Two types of agencies usually carry out debt collection: debt collection agencies and debt buying agencies. The former operate on behalf of creditors and receive a percentage of the collected debt as payment, while the latter purchase debts from creditors for a fraction of the debt’s worth and then pursue the debtors for the full balance.

Hiring a debt collection agency is more financially reasonable than selling your uncollected debt to a debt buyer, especially when you do not have to recover money instantly. But when a collection agency fails to resolve your case within a reasonable period of time, it is best to let an experienced debt collection attorney handle your case.

This is where The Law Offices of John L. Friedman steps in. Hiring John Friedman in the first place can save you from the pitfall of paying a debt collection agency and then turning to an attorney when the agency fails to deliver. An experienced debt collection attorney will work to resolve your case by employing legal debt collection techniques that include:

  • Applying a judgment lien to the debtor’s property that will satisfy the debt when the property is sold.
  • Employing an execution and levy that will satisfy the debt by effecting the seizure and sale of the debtor’s property.
  • Winning a wage garnishment against the debtor that will result in a percentage of the debtor’s earnings being paid towards the satisfaction of the debt.

Debt collection is sometimes the only way to receive the money that you both need and deserve.
