America's Most
Relentless
Collection Agency.
We get results where others won't.
We founded the boots-on-the-ground approach to commercial debt recovery. We do our research, go the extra mile, and if we have to — we'll sit in your customer's office until they cut a check. No other agency in the country can make that claim.
Most collectors give up
after 3 phone calls.
The standard playbook: send a letter, make three calls, get stonewalled — then hand your account to an attorney you've never met, using tactics you don't know, billing by the hour whether they collect or not.
Meanwhile your money sits. The relationship deteriorates. And you're funding an attorney's hourly rate while waiting for an outcome that may never come.
That's not collecting. That's outsourcing your problem and hoping for the best.
Boots on the Ground.
No Quit.
We founded this approach. We perfected it. 25 years later, it's still the most effective way to recover commercial debt.
We Do the Research
Before we make a single contact, we know your debtor — their assets, behavior patterns, and pressure points. We don't wing it.
We Show Up in Person
If we have to walk into your customer's office and sit there until they write a check — we will. That's a commitment no other agency makes.
We Control Every Step
Every attorney in our network is personally vetted by us. Every collector is seasoned. We don't hand your account to a stranger.

Boots-on-the-Ground Recovery
In-person visits to debtor offices. We don't hide behind phone calls — we show up, and that changes the dynamic.

When debtors go dark, we find them. Full asset discovery — real property, business accounts, vehicles, and more.
Legal Enforcement Network
Vetted attorneys for litigation, judgments, liens, and garnishments. Every one personally known to us — no wildcards.
Psychology-Based Negotiation
25 years studying why people pay and why they don't. We use that to structure settlements that close.
Commercial Collections
B2B only. We know this space — the complexity, the jurisdictions, the industry dynamics. We know it cold.
No Recovery, No Fee
We don't get paid until you do. No retainers. No hourly billing. Our incentive is your recovery. Period.
Christopher Strauss
25+ years in commercial debt recovery. Built one of the most effective B2B collection operations in the country from the ground up — and still works accounts personally.
Chris founded the boots-on-the-ground philosophy at a time when every other agency was switching to auto-dialers and overseas call centers. He bet on the opposite — and won.
