A clear strategy for recovering what is owed.
Saleha Khan Attorneys assists individuals and businesses in Roodepoort with debt collection, from the first demand to court proceedings and enforcement where appropriate.
Letters of Demand
A formal demand setting out the amount claimed, the basis of the debt and the next steps if payment is not received.
Unpaid Invoices
Assistance with overdue business accounts, invoices for goods or services and supporting proof of delivery or performance.
Rental Arrears
Advice and recovery assistance for unpaid rent, based on the lease, payment history and circumstances of the matter.
Payment Agreements
Negotiating settlement terms, acknowledgements of debt and practical payment arrangements where appropriate.
Summons and Judgment
Preparing and pursuing court proceedings where the claim warrants litigation, including defended matters and judgment applications.
Judgment Enforcement
Advice on appropriate enforcement steps after judgment, taking account of the debtor’s circumstances and available information.
Start with the facts and the documents.
We review what is owed, when payment became due and the evidence supporting your claim. The agreement, payment history, any dispute and the debtor’s details help determine the appropriate approach.
A demand or negotiated settlement may resolve the matter. We also consider the age of the debt, applicable notice requirements and the cost of further action.
Make an informed decision about litigation.
If a demand does not resolve the matter, we explain the available court process, likely costs and practical recovery considerations before proceeding on your instructions.
A judgment does not automatically result in payment. Enforcement is a separate step and depends on the circumstances of the debtor and the matter.
Understand what happens next.
Review the claim
Send the agreement, invoices, account statement and correspondence so we can assess the debt and advise on your options.
Demand payment
We prepare the appropriate demand or notice and consider any response, dispute or settlement proposal.
Decide the next step
Where necessary, we advise on summons and court proceedings, with the scope and fees agreed before further work.

Clear fees from the outset.

Debt collection questions, answered.
Is there a minimum debt amount?
There is no fixed minimum debt amount for contacting the firm. We assess the claim and discuss whether the likely costs and recovery prospects justify further action.
Can you assist with a disputed invoice?
Yes. We review the agreement, supporting evidence and the reasons for the dispute before advising on settlement or court proceedings.
Is a letter of demand the same as a section 129 notice?
Not necessarily. Where the National Credit Act applies, specific statutory notice requirements may be relevant. We assess the agreement before advising on the appropriate notice and process.
How long does debt collection take?
Timing depends on the debtor’s response, any dispute, service of documents, court processes and enforcement. We explain the likely stages for your matter; payment and recovery cannot be guaranteed.
Can I recover my legal costs from the debtor?
This depends on the agreement, applicable law and any court order. Even where costs are awarded, they may not cover all the fees and expenses you incur.
Can you help if I already have a judgment?
Yes. Send us the judgment, any previous enforcement documents and the information you have about the debtor so we can assess the available options.
