DEBT COLLECTION

From amicable resolution to enforced execution

01

Amicable

Reminder and negotiation, before any court action — the fastest route in most cases.

02

Judicial

Justice of the Peace up to €15,000, district court beyond that — the competent court depends on the amount of the debt.

03

Enforcement

Protective attachments and enforced-execution proceedings, through to actual recovery.

CIVIL & COMMERCIAL MEDIATION

An amicable path, backed by genuine mediator training

Me Vella completed mediator training with the Centre de Médiation Civile et Commerciale du Luxembourg (CMCC), applicable whatever the field of the dispute — often faster and less costly than court proceedings.

Confidential process

A structured framework, shielded from the publicity of court proceedings.

Negotiated solution

An agreement built and controlled by the parties themselves, rather than imposed by a third party.
