Creditor's Rights and Collections

Greater Danbury Debt Collections and Lien Enforcement

At the Collins, Hannafin law firm, our commercial collections attorneys have longstanding experience with the effective enforcement of debt obligations on behalf of small and mid-sized businesses and individuals. To learn how our lawyers can help you improve the performance of your nonperforming accounts in an efficient and cost effective manner, contact us in Danbury or Ridgefield.

We handle all stages of collection from the initial demand letter to postjudgment proceedings. Our lawyers aggressively represent retailers, wholesalers, medical practices and other professional groups, building contractors, commercial lessors or property management companies, and condominium associations. We work closely with you to make an accurate assessment of the net value and practical enforceability of your claim. If guaranties are available, we pursue the full range of your rights to recover the debts owed your business against any entity who can be held to account.

Our familiarity with the Uniform Commercial Code and commercially reasonable foreclosure and liquidation practices can also help assure you that any action against collateral will be conducted properly, thereby protecting your right to a deficiency judgment and precluding future lender liability claims. Additionally, our attorneys can enforce foreign judgments on debts litigated in other states against debtors with assets in Connecticut.

The creditors' rights practice at Collins, Hannafin extends to workouts, compromises, and the pursuit of secured or unsecured claims in bankruptcy. For condominium associations, we enforce statutory liens for unpaid common charges and fees. To learn more about the scope and effectiveness of our collections work, contact a Connecticut debt enforcement lawyer at either of our offices.
