Independent Commercial Debt Recovery and Dispute (£10K)

I am seeking an independent debt recovery, litigation, or commercial disputes professional to review and assist with recovery of an outstanding debt of approximately £10,000.

The matter arises from a failed professional retainer arrangement. Liability is disputed and the successful applicant will be required to independently review the contractual position, supporting evidence, invoices, correspondence, and recovery options.

This project is linked to a separate whistleblowing and compliance review being undertaken by an independent third party. While the assignments are separate, there is a degree of overlap in the underlying documentation and factual background.

The role may include:

• Reviewing contractual and billing documentation
• Assessing prospects of recovery
• Drafting letters before action and settlement proposals
• Negotiating resolution where appropriate
• Advising on county court proceedings
• Preparing evidence for litigation if required

Experience of disputed invoices, consultancy agreements, retainers, professional services contracts, and commercial debt recovery is highly desirable.

Please provide:

• Relevant experience
• Proposed fee structure
• Estimated timescales
• Availability to commence work

Confidentiality agreement required before documentation is released.
