Debt recovery
Debt recovery lawyer in Luxembourg
The firm recovers your unpaid invoices in Luxembourg and internationally: formal notice, payment order, court proceedings and forced enforcement.
An unpaid debt weighs directly on your cash flow. The longer you wait, the harder and costlier recovery becomes.
The firm selects the fastest and most economical procedure depending on the amount, the debtor and their location.
The need
Unpaid invoices, debtors who go quiet, internal reminders that have no effect.
Without a structured escalation, the debt ages and the risk of non-recovery grows.
The risk
An unclaimed debt becomes time-barred; a debtor can organise their own insolvency while you wait.
Recovering late costs more and reduces your chances of full payment.
Our role
A firm formal notice, then, if necessary, a payment order or a summons, through to forced enforcement by a bailiff.
For cross-border debts, the firm uses the European instruments (European payment order, European Enforcement Order).

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
From what amount should you call on a lawyer?
A lawyer's formal notice is worthwhile even for modest amounts, as it gives credibility to the claim. For larger or contested amounts, court proceedings become relevant.

What if the debtor contests the debt?
If the debtor contests the debt, the matter shifts to litigation on the merits, where the firm defends your claim with the available evidence.
