Case Study: Recovering £15K of Unpaid Debt in Just 3 Months

business man

When an SME service provider approached KSL Projects, they were struggling to recover over £20,000 in unpaid invoices – money that was vital to their business cash flow.

The Challenge:
With multiple outstanding debts and two clients already in liquidation, the outlook seemed bleak. The business owner had tried chasing payments themselves but was hitting dead ends.

Our Solution:
We took a systematic approach to debt recovery, balancing persistence with professionalism:

✅ Full audit of outstanding debts
✅ Prioritising debts based on recovery likelihood
✅ Direct, tactful negotiation with debtors
✅ Issuing legal pre-action protocols where necessary
✅ Navigating insolvency proceedings to maximise returns

The Results:
Within three months, we successfully recovered:

  • 50% of the debt without legal action through negotiation
  • 25% via the legal route
  • Unfortunately, two clients were in liquidation – but every possible route was explored.

In total, the client recovered over £15,000 – a significant boost to their cash flow without costly legal battles.

Debt recovery isn’t just about chasing money – it’s about protecting your business and your reputation. Let us take the stress off your hands.
