    • Respond promptly to our requests for information or authorization
    • Refrain from contacting the debtor directly during active collection

    5. No Guarantee of Recovery

    While we maintain an industry-leading 80%+ recovery rate, we cannot guarantee the recovery of any specific debt. Success depends on numerous factors including debtor solvency, jurisdiction, documentation quality, and debt age. We commit to pursuing recovery diligently using all appropriate means.

We will not disclose client or debtor information to third parties except as necessary to perform our services (e.g., engaging local legal counsel), as required by law, or with your express written consent. Our confidentiality obligations survive the termination of services.
