Muller Law Firm Helps Business Owners Respond to Debtor Stall Tactics

BIRMINGHAM, Mich. - July 17, 2023 - PRLog -- Is it difficult to get getting the money you're owed from customers? Want to learn tactics to get paid sooner?

If a debtor gets away with stalling on an account, your company ends up footing the bill for any shortfall in cash flow. In a difficult economy, your cash flow may be strained even when your customers pay on time. You must cut the stall tactics short to improve your cash flow and regain control.

Some of the best ways to short-circuit stall tactics are:

Make your objectives known – You expect full payment by or before a specific date. Keep it straightforward. For example: "With the exception of [one or two legitimate disputes] raised on [one or two specific invoices] that I am researching, I expect full payment of the remaining balance of [balance not involved in dispute] by [a specific time]. I'll have the information back to you on the disputed invoices by a [specific time]." Have your calendar in front of you while you're on the phone and pick a date a week or so in the future. If full payment isn't received by the agreed date, you're dealing with a debtor who is stalling for time and can't be trusted.

Quickly resolve any disputes – Insist that you need to know now what disputes exist, immediately followed up by any documentation the debtor has concerning the disputes. Example: "I hear what you're saying about an alleged dispute, but I need you to back up your comment with full documentation. Can you fax it to me this afternoon?"

Use your instincts and good business sense, plus a review of your file documentation, to determine whether the debtor is raising a legitimate dispute or is simply stalling for time.
