WILLIAMS & WILLIAMS HOME PAGE

Ever feel helpless about collecting a receivable? Does it seem as if the scale is weighted toward debtors? Our involvement reverses the playing field in favor of our clients.

Williams & Williams, Inc. specializes in collecting debt arising from business-to-business transactions. We can begin to recover your money immediately which means within minutes you will have a detailed report in hand outlining our efforts.


30 WORDS ABOUT WILLIAMS & WILLIAMS

All recoveries contingent (no collection – no fee), 20% rates, no hidden fee agendas, bonded, insured, trust accounting, worldwide agency network, frequent detailed progress reporting, nationally recognized clientele, free courtesy services, member International Association of Commercial Collectors (IACC), member Association of Credit & Collection Professionals (ACA).


A cost-effective rate comparison with other agencies is another reason to take notice of the WWI program. All collection agencies urge the same theme of timely placement yet only Williams & Williams rewards a client with a significant discount if payment occurs without attorney assistance. Using our competitors’ 25% rate as a base, the 20% WWI contingent rate represents a real fee savings of 40%. Superior results compound the savings! If our thorough investigation leads to a prudent decision to initiate legal steps, our program insures that “out of pocket” legal costs will be negligible. Added bonuses are the free courtesy support services offered to our clients that need credit and collection assistance.
