Garage Keeper Liens: Secure Your Payment
A Garage Keeper Lien allows service providers who repair or store vehicles to place a lien on a vehicle when the owner fails to pay. This lien gives you the right to retain possession of the vehicle until payment is made. It can effectively motivate delinquent clients to settle their outstanding debts.
At Abrionix, we manage the entire process of filing and enforcing a Garage Keeper Lien:
- Assessment of Eligibility: We evaluate your situation to determine if a lien is the best course of action.
- Filing the Lien: We handle all the necessary paperwork and legal filings to ensure the lien is properly registered according to Alberta laws.
- Enforcement: If necessary, we assist in enforcing the lien. This may involve the legally sanctioned sale of the vehicle to recover the owed amount.
Demand Letters: Effective Debt Recovery
A professionally crafted demand letter can serve as a potent reminder to debtors of their obligations before escalating to more intensive measures. Our demand letters are tailored to each unique situation. They provide a clear and firm request for payment while outlining the legal consequences of non-compliance. This approach demonstrates your seriousness about collecting the debt. It also preserves the relationship with the debtor when possible.
Small Claims Court: When Litigation is Necessary
If negotiations fail and the debt remains unpaid, filing a claim in small claims court might be your next step. Our team supports you through this process, from preparing and filing necessary documents to representing your interests in court. Small claims court offers a straightforward solution for recovering debts up to a certain monetary limit without the need for a lengthy and expensive legal process.
