Matters we can review
International recovery is not limited to claims against French debtors. Each matter is assessed according to its documents, contractual framework, jurisdictions, procedural status and the routes genuinely available.
The firm has already been approached in matters involving France, Monaco, Switzerland, Sweden and Kuwait. This list is not exhaustive: every new request is assessed according to the jurisdictions involved, the available evidence and any locally authorised professionals required.

How the collaboration works
Preliminary review
Contract or purchase order, unpaid invoices, evidence of delivery or performance, due dates and relevant debtor correspondence.
Route assessment
Review of the evidence, any dispute, the location of the parties and the procedural constraints identified.
Written proposal
The scope, fees and engagement terms are confirmed in writing before any action begins.
Coordinated follow-up
A central point of contact provides structured updates. Where local legal or enforcement action is required, independent regulated professionals may act under their own applicable terms or mandates.
Professional partners
For collection agencies, credit managers and advisers
For recurring referrals, LEGATUM & PARTNERS may discuss an arrangement covering file transmission, reporting and fees. Any cooperation is defined case by case after review of the anticipated matters and operating requirements.
