A recovery desk is volume work where the dates decide everything. Six years under section 5 of the Limitation Act 1980, restarted by a part payment or an acknowledgment under section 29(5), and a file that runs out of time is a file the firm answers for. The desk keeps the clock on every debt, offers the next lawful step one at a time, and receipts what comes in to the client account under the client's own name.

Every step below is a screen in the product today, not a roadmap.
Capture the debtor, the capital, the rate and the date the debt arose. Interest accrues on what the retainer provides for, and the limitation date is computed from the last thing that moved it rather than the day the debt arose.
A letter before claim, the step the Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims expects before proceedings. The desk records the day it went, because the protocol's clock runs from then.
Every debt sorted by what may lawfully be done next, with the ones closest to their limitation date first. A promise to pay pauses the ladder and reappears the day it is broken.
Receipt what is recovered straight to the client account in the client's name, applied to costs, then interest, then capital. The commission bill is raised against the file and settled from the client account only against a bill delivered.
The recovery report beside the rest of the books: what is out, what came in, and what recovering it cost, in the same ledger as the practice.
Receipts land on the client's ledger against the file, cannot overdraw it, and are covered by the five-weekly reconciliation and the accountant's report pack.
How it works →The commission bill off the recovery, VAT-aware, with statements, a reminder ladder that pauses for a promise to pay, and payment from the client account only once the bill is delivered.
How it works →The same engine that counts clear days under CPR 2.8 keeps the limitation register, and a file inside three months of its date is raised before it is lost.
How it works →Every letter, call and payment on the debt sits on the matter, so the file answers for itself if the client asks what was done and when.
How it works →Yes. Six years under section 5 of the Limitation Act 1980, counted from the latest of the date the debt arose, a written acknowledgment, or a part payment, which restart the period under section 29(5). The register shows the days left and raises a file before it is lost.
No, and the software does not imply otherwise. A letter does not interrupt limitation however firmly it is worded. Only an acknowledgment in writing, a part payment, or issuing the claim changes the position.
Not yet, and it says so rather than guessing. A regulated agreement brings the Consumer Credit Act 1974 with it, and those notices are not built. The desk offers the ordinary letter before claim, which is the right step for the debts it does cover.
On the client account, on the client's own ledger against that file. It cannot be overdrawn, it is inside the five-weekly reconciliation, and the firm's commission leaves it only against a bill that has been delivered.
Every plan, including Solo. The recovery desk sits on the matters feature, which is in all four packages. The plan decides how many people may sign in, nothing else.
