What our customers say

HP Inc. Case Study

In 2008, Hewlett Packard had a problem.  Collecting debts  from B2B customers or  non-responsive customers took an unwanted toll on the organisation’s resources and the success rate was disappointing. So HP decided to outsource these difficult cases to Atradius Collections.

"The debt collection cases we send Atradius Collections are the most difficult ones but it continues to get results."

My drive is to achieve good results for the client.

What you can expect from an Atradius Legal Expert:

As a trader you have the right to be paid for your goods and services. You have the law, and our team of in-house Lawyers and Partners, on your side.

Cases that need to be resolved through litigation can be a complex, especially with disputes involving international trade, where it’s important to comply with local legislation. It’s my task to make sure your company is compliant with local laws, while maximising the results and providing you with complete oversight of costs.

The advice we provide will vary from country to country and even case to case dependent on individual need. What remains constant, however, is our commitment to get to know your company and aims. We believe we can provide you with the best legal support if we work closely with you and build strong relationships focused on achieving your aims.

My drive is to achieve good results for the client. This doesn’t always mean collecting the full 100 % as, sometimes it’s better for our client to reach a settlement where all parties are happy (even the debtor).
