Strong communication with Jeremy going in, good pitch suggesting good likelihood of outcome. Promised that RJA specializes in collecting from LLCs/small businesses and will relentlessly and indefinitely continue to attempt to collect. Agree to 50% commission. RJA/Jeremy seem to have made several attempts to contact account over a month, were met with obvious resistance, gave up on the originally pitched "3 tiered relentless collections efforts), and then notify me that I will have to pay RJA a fee of either $1500 or $1050 (not sure which), in order to proceed with a legal retainer fee which would

Our company has been using Richard James & Associates for several years and not only are they professional and prompt, they are caring and kind. They do all they can to help the companies recover debts owed and exude honest and caring mannerisms towards the debtors. We highly recommend you consider using this company. We have worked with Barbara Jones directly and she has been nothing short of incredible. Thank you Richard James & Associates, and more directly, Barbara, for your constant care and diligence towards our accounts!

Was called by this company and offered services, and we declined. I politely asked them not to call us back, which their representative then said he would not call back TODAY. I asked for them to not call back ever, to which he said he would probably call back TOMORROW. I told him he would be harassing us at that point, to which he replied that he would just have another associate call us. COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL!

Richard James & Associates is my go to company for help with collecting from the most difficult of accounts! They have had a great success rate collecting for my company. It's been a little over a year since we first placed what we considered "uncollectible" accounts with them. The results have been great! James Larson is awesome to work with. He keeps me updated on every step of the process. He has successfully come through for us when I didn't think we had a chance of receiving a payment. I will continue to use them in the future! You will not be disappointed with their work!!

Our business started using RJA a few years ago when we ran into some customers who did not want to pay their bills. We had everything from simple collections to very unique accounts. My rep, Larry Earl, made sure to contact me regularly with updates. I was very impressed at the amount of footwork that him and his team put in to help me resolve the past due accounts. Their fee structure and invoicing procedure is very well done and clear to understand. I am very pleased that RJA shows consistency with their team as well as their paperwork. Even with customers who flat our refused to pay, Larry and

We began working with Richard James & Associates in 2017 for our difficult collection accounts. Larry Earl has been highly involved in every step of the way these last several years. Even during the pandemic, they have had great success for us. I appreciate their ease to work with and the great communication provided. They have prevailed for us in times when I was certain that our chances of receiving payment were slim to none. Please consider giving Larry Earl and his team a shot at collecting the receivables from those difficult customers who may not be responding to your attempts. They know

We have been using Richard James for our bad debt collections for over 2 years and they have done a fantastic job for us. I also like the monthly emailed report with the update of every account we have turned over, whether it is paid, closed or still active. Larry Earl is also great to work with. I highly recommend this company for your collection efforts.
