Escalate – Debt Recovery and Dispute Resolution for SMEs

The average litigation case for a small or medium sized business is around 18 months, so it’s not uncommon for bills to spiral to the level of the damages that you’re claiming. Even if you can find a lawyer to act for you on a ‘no win no fee’ basis, you’ll still have to pay up front for disbursements such as court fees. And, of course, you could be liable for all or some of the defendant’s costs as well as your own if you lose the case.

It’s hardly surprising, then, that many businesses decide against pursuing a claim and reluctantly write-off what they are owed. That’s why Escalate was created, a smarter way to recover bad debts and resolve commercial disputes that prioritises your cash flow by focusing on a quick settlement, removing upfront costs and minimising risk.

There are no restrictions on the types of cases Escalate can tackle – bad debt, contractual, negligence, IP infringement etc, and importantly, they can revisit disputes up to three years old.
