Introducing our new member Sugar Law Group

Sugar Law Group (SLG) is a commercial (B2B) debt collection law firm located in Toronto, Canada.  The firm is regulated by the Rules of Professional Conduct for Lawyers and is not a collection agency.  SLG has more than 40 years worth of debt collection experience that it uses for the benefit of its clients.

SLG uses unique strategies and specialized software in order to maximize the recovery of delinquent commercial accounts receivable without resorting to the court system.  The firm acts entirely on contingency.  If SLG does not collect, its client do not pay.  While the rates charged by SLG are competitive with collection agencies, its clients are represented by a lawyer.

If SLG is unable to collect an account at the pre-litigation stage and believes that it can win at court, it will litigate the matter entirely on contingency.  The rate charged remains the same for cases brought to the litigation stage.  At the small claims court level, the firm will even advance the court fees and disbursements.  If SLG wins, it reimburses itself from the collected funds.  If it does not win, SLG bears the cost.

If SLG does not recommend litigation as a course of action, but a client still want to sue its debtor, SLG will take those cases at a competitive hourly rate.

The SLG website allows clients to securely view the status of each account that they have placed with the firm.  Also, the firm’s computer system prepares detailed progress reports that it can forward to a client on request.  This allows clients to track their files without incurring the costly legal bills associated with manual legal reporting.  Still, the professionals at SLG will always be available to speak with its clients about files at no additional cost.

Introducing our new member Sugar Law Group

Sugar Law Group (SLG) is a commercial (B2B) debt collection law firm located in Toronto, Canada.  The firm is regulated by the Rules of Professional Conduct for Lawyers and is not a collection agency.  SLG has more than 40 years worth of debt collection experience that it uses for the benefit of its clients.

SLG uses unique strategies and specialized software in order to maximize the recovery of delinquent commercial accounts receivable without resorting to the court system.  The firm acts entirely on contingency.  If SLG does not collect, its client do not pay.  While the rates charged by SLG are competitive with collection agencies, its clients are represented by a lawyer.

If SLG is unable to collect an account at the pre-litigation stage and believes that it can win at court, it will litigate the matter entirely on contingency.  The rate charged remains the same for cases brought to the litigation stage.  At the small claims court level, the firm will even advance the court fees and disbursements.  If SLG wins, it reimburses itself from the collected funds.  If it does not win, SLG bears the cost.

If SLG does not recommend litigation as a course of action, but a client still want to sue its debtor, SLG will take those cases at a competitive hourly rate.

The SLG website allows clients to securely view the status of each account that they have placed with the firm.  Also, the firm’s computer system prepares detailed progress reports that it can forward to a client on request.  This allows clients to track their files without incurring the costly legal bills associated with manual legal reporting.  Still, the professionals at SLG will always be available to speak with its clients about files at no additional cost.

Introducing our new member Sugar Law Group

Sugar Law Group (SLG) is a commercial (B2B) debt collection law firm located in Toronto, Canada.  The firm is regulated by the Rules of Professional Conduct for Lawyers and is not a collection agency.  SLG has more than 40 years worth of debt collection experience that it uses for the benefit of its clients.

SLG uses unique strategies and specialized software in order to maximize the recovery of delinquent commercial accounts receivable without resorting to the court system.  The firm acts entirely on contingency.  If SLG does not collect, its client do not pay.  While the rates charged by SLG are competitive with collection agencies, its clients are represented by a lawyer.

If SLG is unable to collect an account at the pre-litigation stage and believes that it can win at court, it will litigate the matter entirely on contingency.  The rate charged remains the same for cases brought to the litigation stage.  At the small claims court level, the firm will even advance the court fees and disbursements.  If SLG wins, it reimburses itself from the collected funds.  If it does not win, SLG bears the cost.

If SLG does not recommend litigation as a course of action, but a client still want to sue its debtor, SLG will take those cases at a competitive hourly rate.

The SLG website allows clients to securely view the status of each account that they have placed with the firm.  Also, the firm’s computer system prepares detailed progress reports that it can forward to a client on request.  This allows clients to track their files without incurring the costly legal bills associated with manual legal reporting.  Still, the professionals at SLG will always be available to speak with its clients about files at no additional cost.
