What kinds of debts can be recovered
- Unpaid invoices for goods or services.
- Promissory notes (pagarés) and checks.
- Private loans between individuals or companies.
- Breached contracts: sales, partnerships, construction or services.
- Informal businesses or partnerships that were never formalized and where one party did not pay.
Stage 1: extrajudicial collection
Most recoveries begin outside court. A structured strategy — formal demand letters, negotiation, payment agreements and, when appropriate, guarantees — solves many cases faster and at lower cost. A professional collector also documents everything, which strengthens any later lawsuit.
Stage 2: judicial collection
When negotiation fails, the case goes to court. Debts documented in negotiable instruments such as promissory notes can be pursued through an executive commercial lawsuit (juicio ejecutivo mercantil), which allows for the seizure of assets from the start of the process. Other debts are pursued through ordinary commercial or civil proceedings. A good strategy identifies the debtor's assets early, so the judgment can actually be collected.
Stage 3: debt acquisition
Sometimes the best decision is not to fight, but to sell. Dahan Capital can acquire your debt — paying you an agreed amount — and take over the collection with its own legal, strategic and logistical resources. You recover liquidity, clean up your balance sheet and free up your time.
We also help restructure businesses that were never formalized: we analyze the relationship, document it, and find a viable way to recover value for the party that was not paid.
What we need to evaluate your case
- The document that supports the debt (contract, invoice, promissory note, transfers).
- Amount, date and history of payments or communications.
- Information about the debtor and any known assets.
