Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Goldberg & Oriel different from other debt collection law firms?
We are one of the few law firms in the country that can help businesses collect debts from customers located in different states. Instead of hiring multiple attorneys in different locations, you can work with us as your single point of contact. We have developed a nationwide network of attorneys who operate under the same high standards we uphold, ensuring seamless service across all 50 states.
Why should I choose a law firm over a collection agency?
Collection agencies can send demand letters and make phone calls, but they cannot file lawsuits. If your debtor refuses to pay, you will eventually need an attorney to take legal action. By working with us from the start, you streamline the process and avoid the extra step of hiring an attorney later.
How does your nationwide debt collection law firm work?
Our process is simple and efficient:
- We agree on a contingency fee—meaning we don’t get paid unless we get money for you.
- The only upfront costs are court-related expenses.
- We provide regular updates on the accounts you place with us for collection.
- You decide whether to accept settlement offers.
- We handle everything, eliminating the need to hire multiple attorneys in different states, which is why we say: One Call Does It All.
Do you handle both commercial and consumer debt collection?
Yes, we handle both commercial and consumer debt collection claims nationwide. Whether you are a business seeking to recover outstanding invoices or a creditor collecting from individuals, our firm has the experience and resources to pursue recovery aggressively while adhering to legal and ethical guidelines.
How do you ensure quality service from attorneys in different states?
We have long-standing relationships with attorneys in every state who operate under the same standards and approach we do. Our network is carefully curated, ensuring that all attorneys provide the same level of service and commitment to results.
What types of businesses benefit from your services?
Any company that does business in multiple states and faces challenges collecting debts can benefit from our services. Our clients include a variety of national corporations, financial institutions, service providers, and small to mid-sized businesses with out-of-state customers.
What are the advantages of using your firm instead of finding local attorneys on our own?
Finding and vetting attorneys in multiple states can be time-consuming and costly. We eliminate that hassle by providing you with a single point of contact while ensuring that our nationwide attorneys are held to our high standards. Additionally, using our firm does not cost more than hiring individual attorneys—it saves you time, effort, and administrative expenses, and of course you just deal with Goldberg & Oriel, not multiple law firms.
What happens if a debtor refuses to pay after legal action is taken?
If a debtor refuses to pay after we have pursued legal action, we will explore additional enforcement options, such as wage garnishments, bank levies, or property liens, depending on state laws and the specifics of the claim.
What is your fee structure?
We work on a contingency basis, meaning we only get paid if we successfully recover funds for you. There are no upfront attorney fees—only court-related costs such as filing fees or process server expenses.

PAY-UP
Those two little words are what debtors hate to hear. But its those two little words that produce results for our clients. By the time most clients reach out to us for help, they have made numerous attempts to get their bill(s) paid. Contacting a lawyer is the last thing that businesses want to do to collect what they are owed. We understand that. No one likes to pay attorney fees and other collection costs just to get paid for the products or services that they provided, which the “buyer” had agreed to pay for. We understand that, and we also understand that once a client hires us, they want us to collect what is owed as quickly as possible. Which is why our message to debtors is always the same:
PAY-UP. Or suit will be filed, without any delay.
