COLLECTIONS

Freedman Anselmo Lindberg LLC (FAL) is a leader in creditor's collections and bankruptcy representation. We have provided counsel to our clients, and have actively legislated favorable law for over 30 years. Well known for their integrity and skills, FAL assists various national and local clients and constantly ranks at or near the top of client batch-track lists and market share ratios. Our capabilities in the area of creditors' rights are unequaled in that we have a sizable, experienced staff, including clerks, collectors, skip tracers and paralegals, who concentrate exclusively on creditors' rights claims. More importantly, our efficient CLS Collection Master© system enables us to provide our clients with timely status and collection reports, and we can generate court forms without delay for all counties statewide. Commissions are computed automatically, and remittances on clear funds can be forwarded immediately, even electronically via wire or ACH transfer. Volume clients can elect to receive payments in the form of detailed, combined reports at time intervals suited to their particular needs. We are EDI ready, servicing various nationwide collection networks. Automated tickler systems track payment schedules and court dockets for increased efficiency and collections. Our dialer system assures regular follow up. Our Naperville office is completely secure, camera covered and compliant with all client privacy standards. FAL are collections professionals, and are members of the Trans Union and Equifax reporting networks and employ national information databases to assist in location and asset tracing. Our experience in representing credit grantors, retailers and financial institutions gives us the clear edge to professionally collect their past due debts.
