B2B debt recovery FAQ
What is a high-stakes B2B claim?
A high-stakes B2B claim may involve a significant amount, a dispute, fragmented evidence, multiple stakeholders, financial exposure, cash-flow urgency or an international dimension.
When should a claim move from amicable recovery to litigation?
Escalation may be considered when amicable recovery no longer produces useful progress, the evidence is sufficiently structured and a procedural lever becomes necessary, subject to the economic interest of the file.
Why assess the evidence before taking action?
Evidence determines admissibility, the response to objections, the procedural route and the ability to enforce an agreement or decision effectively.
Does Legatum & Partners operate in France and internationally?
Yes. The firm handles B2B commercial claims in France and international matters, subject to an assessment of the evidence, debtor, country involved and enforcement prospects.
