Why acting now matters
The end of the year is the perfect time to resolve unpaid invoices and ensure all your books are balanced. Why? Bankruptcies across Europe have been steadily increasing, with recent reports from Eurostat and BusinessEurope showing the highest bankruptcy rates in nearly a decade. Economic challenges such as the pandemic, inflation, and market volatility have left many businesses struggling, and this trend is projected to continue.
Delaying action on outstanding debts puts your business at risk. If a debtor declares bankruptcy, recovering your money becomes far less likely. By acting now, you protect your financial stability and ensure a stronger start to the new year.
We’re here to help. Our team makes it a priority to recover what’s owed to you. That way, you can enter the new year with a clean slate and new focus on financial health. Don’t wait—settle outstanding debts before January 1st.
Our proven debt collection method
Step 1. Transfer your claim for same-day action
Through our simple online form, you can transfer your claim for collection in less than two minutes. After receiving this information, our experts will take immediate action. Your case will be handled by a specialist that perfectly matches the details of your situation. Our matching process analyses your debtor's country, the nature of your claim, the sector your debtor operates in, and a large number of other factors. That way, you can always be sure that your case is off to a great start.
Tip: You will receive login credentials for the Bierens Web Portal shortly after you have transferred your case. Through our portal, you can follow your case every step of the way. View all documents pertaining to your file, access all correspondence between us and your debtor, and read all of the case notes of your dedicated case manager.
Step 2. Preparation is half the battle
We give it our all to recover your debt without the need for court intervention. In order to do so, we start by analysing credit reports, company registration details and database entries pertaining to your debtor. Doing so will help us discern your debtor’s solvency and the expected recoverability of your claim.
Tip: If you transfer your case on a working day before 4 p.m. CE(S)T, your debtor will receive a demand letter on the same day.
Step 3. Our extrajudicial debt recovery phase with a 95% success rate
Because every legal system has its peculiarities, we employ an in-house team of 115+ international lawyers and debt recovery specialists. As such, different languages, business customs and legal systems are no obstacles for us. Combine that with over 70 years of experience and you get an extrajudicial debt recovery method that offers an unmatched success rate of 95%.
On top of that, our No Cure No Pay policy applies to the extrajudicial phase, which means that there is very little risk involved. We also make every effort to recover our fees from your debtor, to ensure that we can provide you with the highest possible payout. On average, our clients receive 95% of the principal amount if we recover their claim in full within the extrajudicial stage.

Step 4. Iron-clad legal solutions
We also offer iron-clad judicial debt collection solutions for the small number of international claims that cannot be recovered extrajudicially. Before initiating legal proceedings of any kind, we always discuss your options with you.
In the judicial phase, our lawyers can employ highly effective European debt collection measures, as well as legal processes unique to the law of your debtor’s country. After obtaining a verdict, we can also help enforce it. Whatever the approach, the goal remains the same: ensuring that you get paid while keeping your costs low.
Step 5. Another case closed
After we have recovered your claim, we will ensure that you receive your money as quickly as possible. Naturally, your case manager remains at your disposal for any further questions you might have. After all, we want your experience with us to be perfect, from beginning to end.
