It can sometimes be frustrating and time consuming to pursue debts owed. Multiple requests for payments are often met with continual promises to pay from debtors, however no money may be received or payment is slow. We therefore explain some effective recovery options in this eBites article for you.
Company Debts
For debtors who are companies, commonly the most effective way to get paid is to issue the debtor company with a Statutory Demand under the Companies Act. Such a formal Demand can be used when the amount owed is $1,000 or more.
In essence, the Demand should outline the amount owed and request payment within 15 working days. Failure to pay or otherwise come to an agreed arrangement means you can apply to the Court for the debtor company to be liquidated. This is something companies usually wish to avoid, so the Demand can be a great recovery tool.
If the debtor company does end up being liquidated, there may be insufficient assets for all creditors. We therefore recommend our clients to obtain personal guarantees from Directors of any company customers. They can then pursue the Director(s) personally to recover what is owed.
Consequently, ensuring your terms of trade and customer credit application forms are up to date and comprehensive can be really beneficial for debt recovery.
Debt owed by an Individual or Business
Where a debt is owed by an individual or a business (that is not a company), or where the debt is owed by a company but the amount owed is under $1,000, you can go to the Disputes Tribunal or the District or High Courts and apply for judgment against the debtor.
The Disputes Tribunal is usually cost effective and quick. It's able to deal with claims up to $15,000. Parties can’t be legally represented at the Tribunal hearing.
For those debts over $15,000 and under $350,000, you can apply to the District Court for judgment against a debtor. For any amount over $350,000 your claim must be filed in the High Court. Both Courts also have the ability to give Summary Judgments which, in contrast to regular court cases, can be faster and less expensive as they don’t require the same level of procedure. We can help in choosing the type of procedure required in any given case.
Once you’ve got a Judgment there are all sorts of ways you can enforce it so as to ensure you get paid. Commonly in cases where a smaller debt is owed, you could apply to have the debtor assessed by the Court as to their financial ability to pay. Orders may be made for instalments to be taken directly from their wages (for an individual). Alternatively, for larger debts, applications to obtain a charge over, or sell, a debtor’s property are available as is an application to make a defaulting individual debtor bankrupt. Like a Statutory Demand, that last option can have devastating consequences for individuals, who usually take all steps possible (such as paying up) to avoid it.
If you want to know more about getting paid or would like further information on how to ensure your terms of trade protect you as creditor, please contact Holly Brown, Senior Solicitor, in our Litigation Team, Ph 03 379 4660.
