Collections

Carlene works diligently to recover debt for small businesses from customers who do not pay, helping business owners, professionals, landlords, and out of state judgment creditors get paid the money they deserve. 

With her 30 years of experience in assisting clients with their debt collection, she knows the intricacies of effective collection, such as:

  • wage garnishment
  • the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
  • post-judgment debt collection actions

 

Carlene will not stop helping clients until they get the payments that they deserve. Consultations are free and are typically held over the phone; however, if needed, a location with full physical access is available.
