The Three-Phase Recovery System
To provide comprehensive debt recovery solutions, DCI employs a three-phase recovery system tailored to meet the specific needs of each case:
Phase One:
Within 24 hours of placing an account, the following will happen:
- The first of four letters are sent to the debtor via US Mail.
- Cases undergo skip-tracing and investigations to obtain the best financial and contact information on debtors.
- Collectors attempt to contact debtors and seek resolutions through various communication channels, including phone calls, emails, text messages, and faxes.
Expect daily attempts to contact debtors during the first 30 to 60 days. If all attempts to resolve the account fail, DCI advances to Phase Two, where the case is immediately forwarded to one of our affiliated attorneys within the debtor’s jurisdiction.
Phase Two:
Upon our office sending your case to a local attorney within our network, you can expect the following:
- The receiving attorney will immediately draft the first of several letters to the debtor, on his law firm letterhead, demanding payment of the debt owed to you.
- The receiving attorney or one of his staff members will immediately start attempting to contact the debtor via telephone, in addition to the series of letters. If all attempts to reach a conclusion to the account continue to fail, we will send you a letter explaining the issues surrounding the case and what we recommend for the next and final step.
Phase Three:
DCI’s recommendation will be one of two things:
- If, after a thorough investigation of the facts surrounding the case and of the debtor’s assets, DCI determines the possibility of recovery is not likely, we will recommend closure of the case. You will owe nothing to our firm or our affiliated attorney for these results.
- If DCI’s recommendation is litigation, you will have a decision to make.
If you decide not to proceed with legal action, you will have the option to withdraw the claim, and you will owe DCI or our affiliated attorney nothing. You may also choose to allow DCI to continue pursuing the debtors with standard collection activity (calls, emails, faxes, etc.)
If you decide to proceed with legal action, you will be required to pay the upfront legal costs such as court costs, filing fees, etc. These fees typically range from $600.00 to $700.00, depending on the debtor’s jurisdiction. Upon payment of these funds, our affiliated attorney will file a lawsuit on your behalf for all monies owed, including, but not limited to, the cost to file this action. If DCI’s attempts to collect via litigation fail, the case will be closed. You will owe nothing to DCI or our affiliated attorney.
