\r\n Procedures & Collection <\/h1>\r\n
\r\n

Preventing disputes is better than settling disputes, is the motto of our lawyers and lawyers. Yet, despite the best intentions, conflicts regularly arise in business dealings. Also cross-border.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n\r\n

\r\n

\r\n \r\n
\r\n \r\n
\r\n If parties to a conflict come from different countries and it results in proceedings, international procedural law applies. <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n
\r\n

Have no agreements been made about which law applies? The judge will then determine which law applies. Does German law apply? Then there are various things you need to take into account.<\/p>\n

Our bilingual specialists are familiar with international procedural law and the various procedures in the Netherlands and Germany. Naturally, they prefer to resolve your conflicts out of court. Does this not work? Our lawyers will then review the options in both countries and advise you on which route you have the greatest chance of success. Will there be a procedure in Germany? Then they keep an overview and think constructively about the best process strategy.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n\r\n

\r\n Collection <\/h2>\r\n \r\n
\r\n Heisterborg International as your external collection department <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n
\r\n

If the party you are doing business with in Germany does not fulfill its agreements and does not pay your invoice, this can have unpleasant consequences for your own liquidity. If you are unable to collect the debt yourself, you will probably look for an external service provider. It is important to use a partner who has knowledge of German laws and regulations.<\/p>\n

Heisterborg International is happy to act as your external collection department. Our debt collection specialists work on both sides of the border every day and are fully bilingual. This unique combination makes it possible to explain the differences between the Dutch and German procedures in detail and to take care of your cross-border debt collection from A to Z. From the first telephone or written demand to – if necessary – a procedure and supervising the collection via the bailiff: you no longer have to worry about it.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n \r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n
