We had a special edition show last week with the infamous Barry Cullen sharing his top tips on how to get paid in a challenging economy. Some of the questions we answered included:
- I’ve got a client who has cash flow issues as a result of the current situation and saying they’ll pay when they can. What should be my next steps/what’s appropriate in the current climate?
- My client said they have furloughed lots of their accounts staff and that will slow everything down. Is that ok?
- Is it ok to offer payment in toilet rolls?
- How can people spot if a client is likely to go bust and what can they do about it?
- UK lawyers are expensive and some times there are client invoices that are too small; what do we do then?
- Access to justice – people are getting nervous about the courts closing? How do we plan for this?
- Are large law firms any more challenging than other business to collect unpaid invoices from?
- What can you do after you have been awarded a CCJ to actually collect the money?
