Case study
Debt recovery for an energy raw materials exporter
Claim value260,000 EUR
CreditorEnergy raw materials exporter (CZ)
DebtorIndustrial counterparty (BE)
Overdue94 days
Recovery time3 weeks
Background
A Czech exporter of energy raw materials supplied an industrial buyer in Belgium under a B2B trading relationship. The deliveries were made in line with the orders and the goods were accepted by the buyer. Once the invoices became due, however, the counterparty stopped responding to messages, payment demands and other contact attempts. In a cross-border claim of this kind, the lack of communication meant that the commercial and transport documentation had to be organised quickly and a legal route to recovery had to be prepared without delay. The pressure created by a credible readiness to enforce the claim within the European Union led first to a payment of 202,000 EUR and then to a settlement covering the remaining balance. The outstanding amount was repaid on time in instalments until the matter was fully closed.
Scope of action
1
Assessment of the legal basis of the claim
- Review of the contract, purchase orders, invoices and payment deadlines
- Analysis of transport documents, proof of receipt and commercial records
- Confirmation of the full amount due and preparation of the basis for further action against the Belgian debtor

Escalation after contact was broken off
- Issuing formal payment demands and escalating the matter to the appropriate decision-makers on the counterparty's side
- Taking over communication with the debtor after the creditor's own contact attempts had failed
- Re-establishing effective contact with the Belgian counterparty and opening settlement discussions
3
