Escalate Dispute Resolution

With the average commercial dispute taking around 18 months to settle, it is understandable why some small to medium businesses decide to write-off what is owed to them. Costs can quickly mount up and before you know it, can equal the damages you are claiming. Through the traditional process, there are substantial upfront court costs you are required to pay and should your claim be unsuccessful, you could be liable for some or all of the defendant’s costs, as well as your own.

This is exactly why My Debt Recovery have become part of an innovative dispute resolution process called Escalate. We feel that all small to medium businesses should be able to effectively pursue commercial disputes without the upfront costs and financial burden on their business.

How does Escalate work?

Escalate follows a two-stage process:

Negotiation

The first stage of this process is engaging experienced debt recovery specialists to negotiate on your behalf. My Debt Recovery are Escalate’s exclusive front-end debt collection agency so you can trust that you have an experienced team working on your behalf to recover what is owed to you.

The defendant is provided with incentives to settle the debt within three months and as mentioned above, this work is based on a fixed fee which you won’t pay unless the debt is recovered.

Litigation

If the defendant is still unwilling to settle within three months, we move into the Litigation stage of the process. Escalate will cover the whole litigation process for you including paying upfront court costs and counsel fees, all the way up to the High Court.

Unlike the traditional route, if you lose your case, you won’t have to pay the defendant’s costs.
