Service formatScoped account assessment and coordination

Know what may be recoverable before you go further.

Before investing further in an unpaid account, understand what may be recoverable. CBEOF reviews the account documentation and available asset information, identifies gaps and helps you weigh potential recovery against the work and costs involved.

If you already hold a judgment, we can organize the records and research for further review. When legal advice or court representation is needed, we coordinate an organized handoff to independent counsel. Our role is asset and collectability assessment, account preparation and coordination; an assessment does not guarantee a judgment or payment.

Is this the service you need?

When this fits

  • You want to assess an account’s recovery potential before investing further in court action.
  • You have an unpaid judgment or documented account that needs asset research or attorney review.

Other services that may help

CBEOF provides research, account preparation and coordination. Independent counsel advises on legal rights and any proposed court or enforcement action.

What’s included.

Understand the account

We review the account balance, supporting agreement, payment history and prior recovery efforts to understand the claim and the information still needed.

Research potential recovery sources

We research available property, business interests, recorded liens and other relevant public-record asset indicators within the agreed scope. Findings include source context and any identity or ownership uncertainty.

Assess the practical recovery picture

We organize the findings into a collectability assessment: potential recovery sources, competing claims or recorded concerns, research gaps and the anticipated costs to consider before further action.

Review an unpaid judgment

For an existing judgment, we help organize the judgment records, account history and available asset findings for a focused recovery review.

Prepare the attorney handoff

When attorney review is appropriate, we prepare an organized referral file and coordinate the handoff. Independent counsel determines legal options, accepts any representation and advises on court action.

What you’ll receive

  • An account review identifying the balance, supporting records and material information gaps.
  • Available asset and public-record findings with source references, dates and matching limitations.
  • A collectability assessment outlining potential recovery sources, uncertainties and cost considerations.
  • An organized account or judgment file for the next agreed review.
  • A defined attorney referral and communication plan when separately agreed.

How it works.

  1. Tell us about the unpaid account

    We establish the account or judgment, your recovery goal and the records available, then confirm the assessment scope and price.

  2. Review assets and collectability

    We research the agreed sources and organize the account facts, potential recovery indicators and unresolved questions into a practical assessment.

  3. Choose an informed next step

    We explain the findings and agreed coordination options. If legal review is needed, we help prepare the file for independent counsel.

Know what to expect.

We’ll confirm the work, the updates you’ll receive and who to contact along the way.

  • The account or judgment, research purpose, sources and jurisdictions included in the assessment.
  • The findings, source context, unresolved questions and agreed assessment deliverable.
  • The person receiving the assessment, any authorized attorney handoff and separately approved additional costs.

What helps us help you.

  • The creditor and debtor names, balance and the agreement or transaction behind the account.
  • An outline of payments, prior collection attempts and any known dispute or bankruptcy.
  • Whether a judgment already exists, with the court and case reference if known.
  • Known business or property connections and the question you want the assessment to answer.

What shapes your quote.

  • The number of accounts, debtors and jurisdictions to review.
  • The available identifiers, account records and existing judgment information.
  • The asset-record sources and depth of research agreed.
  • Document preparation and coordination required, with attorney and court charges considered separately.

Tell us what you need help with. We’ll explain which records are needed and how to provide them. Personal reports, ID images and account files can wait until then.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about this service?

A few details to help you decide.

Ask another question
Can you help us decide whether an account is worth pursuing?

Yes. We review the supporting account information and available asset indicators to help you evaluate the practical recovery picture before committing more resources. We identify what the research supports, what remains unknown and which questions need independent legal advice.

What does an asset and collectability assessment include?

The agreed review may include property and business records, recorded liens, account documentation and existing judgment information. We organize the findings with source references and limitations. Identifying a potential asset does not establish available equity, legal reachability or a guaranteed recovery.

Can you review an existing unpaid judgment?

Yes. We can discuss the judgment records, account history and asset research needed for a focused review. Legal enforceability, exemptions and any proposed enforcement action are matters for independent counsel.

Does CBEOF provide legal advice or represent us in court?

This service focuses on asset research, collectability assessment, account preparation and coordination. Legal advice, legal strategy and court representation are provided through a separate engagement with independent counsel.

Does the assessment guarantee payment?

No. The value is a clearer basis for deciding where to invest further effort. Records can be incomplete, assets can be encumbered or protected, and a judgment does not itself guarantee collection. We explain the research findings and unresolved questions before discussing further work.
