What this service is

Documentation and filings package is a structured, pre-litigation service that prepares the complete debt and claim file needed to escalate recovery in a controlled way—either through formal filings (small claims/civil court) or via local counsel partners where representation is required. The goal is to turn a delinquent account into a litigation-ready, exhibit-ready pack with clean debtor identification, provable delivery/acceptance, and a defensible amounts-due calculation.

This service is designed to deliver:

• a complete, organised “case file” for a specific debtor and debt

• an exhibit index and evidence timeline that counsel and courts can use

• a clean damages/amounts-due calculation with credits and offsets mapped

• draft narrative inputs for pleadings (facts, claim basis, remedies)

• filing readiness: what can be filed where, and what is missing (if anything)

Who this is for

This service is a fit if you are:

• moving beyond demand letters because the debtor is ignoring you

• preparing to file a claim (or to hand off to local counsel partners)

• collecting a higher-value debt where documentation quality matters

• facing “not delivered/defective work” claims and need evidence discipline

• pursuing recovery across states and need venue and debtor identity clarity

• an international company collecting from a US counterparty and needing a US-ready file

• dealing with multiple invoices and want a single, clean pack for escalation

What “documentation & filings package” includes

The package is built around three pillars: identity, proof, and calculation.

1) Debtor and contract identification (no wrong-entity mistakes)

We confirm:

• correct legal name of the debtor entity (and any “doing business as” posture)

• registered address and known operational contacts

• who signed and with what authority posture (basic)

• governing contract stack: MSA/SOW/Order Forms/POs/email acceptance

Output: an identity sheet and contract map that prevents “we sued the wrong entity” problems.

2) Evidence pack (delivery, acceptance, and breach)

We organise evidence into an exhibit-ready structure:

• contracts, SOWs, amendments, and relevant policies

• invoice set and payment ledger (aging, partial payments, credits)

• delivery/acceptance evidence:

  • handover emails

  • delivery logs

  • milestone approvals

  • access records (for SaaS/services)

  • shipment/receipt documents (for goods)

• dispute communications:

  • defect notices

  • rejection claims

  • promises to pay

  • settlement discussions (handled carefully)

• termination/suspension notices (if applicable)

Output: a timeline, evidence index, and exhibit set that supports escalation.

3) Amounts due and remedies logic (defensible and realistic)

We produce:

• principal amount due with invoice-by-invoice mapping

• credits, offsets, and adjustments (so the number is defensible)

• contractual interest/late fee posture (only if supported)

• fee shifting posture (only if contract supports it)

• settlement range logic (optional, business-facing)

Output: a clean calculation sheet and remedy statement aligned to contract terms.

Filing readiness: what we do (and what we coordinate)

Different filings require different procedures and often licensed local representation. This service focuses on:

• preparing an escalation-ready pack suitable for filing

• identifying the best path: small claims, civil claim, arbitration, or settlement leverage

• coordinating local counsel partners where formal representation is required

Key principle: the best outcome is not “filing fast.” The best outcome is filing with a clean record and a provable claim posture.

Common problems we fix before escalation

• wrong legal entity or missing registered address

• no evidence of acceptance (debtor claims “not delivered”)

• inconsistent invoice dates/amounts and unclear credits

• scope ambiguity and missing change order evidence

• uncontrolled communications that create admissions

• missing contract clauses (forum selection, arbitration, fee shifting)

Benefits of a filings-ready documentation pack

• Higher settlement leverage: debtors take you seriously when your file is clean

• Lower external counsel cost: organised exhibits reduce billable time

• Faster escalation: you can move quickly once the pack is ready

• Reduced rejection risk: fewer filing problems due to missing documents

• Defensible amounts: clean calculations reduce counterclaim opportunities

• Audit-ready records: useful for internal controls and write-off decisions

What you typically receive

Deliverables usually include:

• debtor identity sheet (entity name, addresses, signatory posture)

• contract map (what governs, what clauses matter)

• timeline of events (exhibit-linked)

• exhibit index and evidence folders structure

• invoice ledger and amounts-due calculation sheet

• draft narrative for filing (facts + remedy request posture)

• filing path recommendation (where to file, what is required next)

• partner counsel handoff pack (if representation is needed)

Service workflow

1) Intake and gap scan

We gather:

• contract/SOW/order evidence

• invoices and payment history

• delivery/acceptance proof

• key communications and any prior demand letters

• debtor identity information you have today

Outcome: a gap list and the pack outline.

2) File build and structuring

We produce:

• evidence timeline and exhibit index

• ledger and amounts-due calculation

• narrative and remedy posture

3) Filing readiness and handoff

We deliver:

• final pack in a clean structure

• recommended next steps (settlement final push vs filing)

• local counsel coordination materials if required

Typical premium pricing

Pricing depends on number of invoices, document volume, and complexity of disputes.

• Single-debtor filings-ready pack (straightforward): $4,500–$18,000+

• Multi-invoice debt with dispute posture (acceptance/scope issues): $12,500–$45,000+

• Complex matter (multi-party, technical deliverables, offsets): $25,000–$95,000+

• Portfolio packs (3–10 debtors) with standardised structure: $18,000–$85,000+

• Ongoing escalation and counsel coordination (monthly): $7,500–$35,000+ / month

Court filings, service of process, and representation are handled by local counsel partners under separate engagement terms.

Frequently asked questions

1. Do we need this pack before filing a claim?
   If you want a strong outcome, yes. A clean pack reduces rejection risk and increases settlement leverage.

2. Can you file the claim for us?
   Where licensed local representation is required, we coordinate local counsel partners. Our role is to build the evidence and documentation pack and manage strategy.

3. What if we are missing some documents?
   We identify gaps early and propose substitutes (emails, logs, invoices, acceptance evidence). The pack is designed to be robust even when the contract stack is imperfect.

4. What’s the biggest reason filings fail?
   Wrong defendant identity and weak delivery/acceptance evidence. We prioritise both.

5. Can this be used for arbitration too?
   Yes. The structure (timeline, exhibits, amounts due) is useful in arbitration, mediation, and court.

6. Will this help if the debtor raises counterclaims?
   A strong record reduces counterclaim leverage and helps you respond quickly and consistently.

7. How do you calculate the amount due?
   Invoice-by-invoice mapping, credit/offset discipline, and contract-based interest/fees only where supported.

8. What do you need from us to start?
   Contracts/SOWs, invoices, payment records, delivery/acceptance proof, and key communications.
