Common questions
Commercial debt recovery in New York, answered.
Altus works New York commercial accounts — including New York-area businesses — on a disciplined, documented cadence — validating the debt, contacting the debtor within 24 hours of placement, negotiating from evidence, and escalating to our local attorney network only when the data supports it. You see every step in real time through the client portal.
At minimum: the debtor's business name and contact details, the amount owed, and supporting documentation (invoices, contracts, statements, proof of delivery). You can place an account in minutes through the portal or via secure file transfer. In New York, well-documented accounts can take advantage of the prompt-payment provisions of New York's General Business Law and Lien Law timing on construction accounts.
Outreach typically begins within 24 hours of placement through our New York metro service coverage. Because collectability decays roughly 20 points each quarter an account ages, earlier placement materially improves recovery — the placement date is the single biggest factor in your result.
