Debt Recovery - Make Sure Your Strategy Works

23 February 2010

Recovering bad debts can be a big headache for businesses which is why leading regional law firm Furley Page created its popular series of interactive workshops to help them find solutions.

The next workshop, in partnership with Kent Invicta Chamber of Commerce, is being held on April 29 at the Marriott Tudor Park Hotel and Country Club, Maidstone.

It follows the same format that proved so successful with the other three - part seminar, part interactive question and answer session.

Martin Kingman, who heads the debt recovery and insolvency team whose expertise is recommended by independent legal guide Chambers UK, said: “Our previous workshops have received very positive feedback so we know there is a big demand for the knowledge and expertise we can offer.

“Businesses need reassuring that they can prevent problems with debtors if they have the right safeguards in place. The workshop is ideal for credit controllers, financial directors and owner-managers who have a direct involvement in managing the firm’s cash flow.”

Joining Martin is Furley Page partner and specialist in corporate and commercial law Susan Jennings who will talk about trading terms and how businesses can use them to their best advantage. She will also explain basic contract points which are essential if you are to stand a chance of securing payment.

Martin will focus on debt recovery and credit control in general; risk analysis; the type of information needed from new clients; late payment and interest; effective debt management and recovery, and international trading.
   
The workshop starts at 8.30am with coffee and rolls and finishes at 11.45am. It’s open to members and non-members throughout Kent and suited to all firms - no matter what the size of the workforce.

Costs, which include coffee and rolls and VAT, are £25 to Kent Invicta Chamber members and £30 to non-members. Bookings can be made by calling the chamber on 01233 503687; emailing maxine@kentinvictachamber.co.uk or online at www.kentinvictachamber.co.uk
