Creditors Rights Legal Services
Consumer and Commercial Collections
We diligently pursue the collection of past-due consumer and commercial accounts. In addition to claims placed for litigation, our team handles pre-litigation collections, domestication of judgments, and post-judgment executions with the experienced and exacting attention to detail and brand protection necessary for our clients to secure successful return on investment and bottom-line recovery.
We understand that pre-litigation options are sometimes the most effective way to save all parties time and expense and achieve swift account resolution. When the situation allows, we work with consumers to negotiate settlement agreements or other mediatory payment arrangements to resolve balances and provide our clients with a fast influx of cash.
In other cases, litigation is necessary and worthwhile. Our team of attorneys possess decades of experience and know precisely how to approach litigation and post-judgment remedies for minimal risk and maximum results. We can help your business recover its losses reliably and compliantly.
Replevins
Repossession is not always an option. In those situations, automobile loan and lease providers need the assistance of an attorney to secure collateral through replevin orders. We assert the rights of creditors to obtain possession of our clients’ collateral in cases where the consumer conceals or transfers the personal property. Our firm removes the onus of the situation from creditors, from letter of intent to writ of replevin to court representation as necessary.
Our attorneys know how to apply the law with the appropriate pressure. We remain compassionate but firm to help creditors secure what is justly due while ensuring diligent legal compliance and respect for consumers throughout the process. Our clients often utilize replevin services as a gateway to collections services. Once the property is secured, we can provide pre-litigation collections, settlement agreements, or obtain deficiency judgments for the remaining balance. We can also pursue judgment enforcement actions to fully recover the account.
Landlord-Tenant Legal Services
We represent commercial and residential landlords in the eviction of delinquent tenants to obtain both possession of the premises and collection of outstanding rent and damages. Our team strives to approach each action with professionalism and sensitivity to hardships while achieving the results appropriate and necessary for our clients.
Working with our team means knowledgeable representation by your side to ensure you are in compliance with tenant protection exceptions, city and county ordinances, state law, statutes, and all other applicable rules and regulations surrounding landlord-tenant actions. Our attorneys also remain cognizant of evolving relief programs relevant to the economic climate.
Commercial Litigation
Successfully litigating business disputes is complex and our firm has the experience and tools necessary to enforce your businesses rights. We represent businesses in a variety of commercial litigation scenarios including helping, enforce agreements, or otherwise protect your businesses rights through the court system.
Our attorneys help our clients navigate the complex process and strategies required to be successful in commercial litigation cases. We understand how businesses operate and can provide the insight necessary to achieve your business objectives through the legal process.
Commercial Transactions
We assist businesses with structuring complex commercial transactions ensuring enforceable agreements while conducting your business. Our attorneys understand the complex nature of business to business transactions and can provide assistance with deal structure, agreements, entity formations and other items that should be contemplated before executing a commercial transaction.
Sklar Law’s team has experience with all types of commercial transactions enabling our attorneys to shepherd our clients through the strategy, negotiation and execution of complex commercial deals.
Bankruptcy Legal Services
We are experts in bankruptcy law. Andrew Sklar is a Chapter 7 bankruptcy panel trustee, District of New Jersey. We attend 341 meetings, prepare and file proof of claim forms, prosecute and defend preference actions, handle adversary complaints and objections to discharge, and prosecute motions to lift automatic stay. We also represent select clients in Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 filings.
In the event of a bankruptcy filing, federal bankruptcy law mandates that all collection activity must immediately cease. If there are assets in the bankruptcy estate of the consumer, a creditor may file a proof of claim with the court in which the bankruptcy is pending. There may also be other actions to be taken in the bankruptcy proceedings depending on the type of bankruptcy filed, and whether you as the creditor are secured or unsecured. We are available for consultation to determine what steps, if any, may be appropriate in your particular circumstances.
