This document is one of the methods to follow-up the final demand for payment. With this document, the past-due account is entirely turned over to either a collection agency or attorney for further collection procedures. This form is an actual assignment of the account to the firm who then actually owns the account and will continue any attempts at collection. It provides that the Assignee (the firm who will be taking over the collection procedures) pays your company (the Assignor, or the “one who assigns”) an amount for the rights to collect the Account. The fee paid is generally a percentage of the amount due. Under this method of collection, all future payments are to be paid to the Assignee firm. Another method for handling collection is provided in our “Appointment of Collection Agent” form.

Among others, this form includes the following provisions:
• Amount Owed
• Hold Harmless for Claims

Frequently Asked Questions

An Assignment of Account for Collection is a legal document that allows a creditor to transfer their rights to collect a debt to a third party, such as a collection agency or attorney. This document formalizes the assignment and outlines the terms of the collection process.

Typically, the assignee pays the assignor a percentage of the total amount due as a fee for the rights to collect the account. This fee can vary based on the agreement between the parties and the nature of the debt.

Once an assignment is executed, it is generally binding, and revocation may not be possible without the consent of the assignee. It's important to review the terms of the assignment and consult legal counsel if you wish to make changes.

If the collection agency is unable to recover the debt, the assignor may not receive any payment. However, the agency may still attempt various collection methods as outlined in the agreement.

The Assignment of Account for Collection is specifically designed for use in West Virginia. While similar forms may exist in other states, it's essential to use the appropriate document that complies with the laws of the relevant jurisdiction.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Businesses seeking to recover outstanding debts may utilize this form to formally assign their accounts to a collection agency. This process allows the business to transfer ownership of the debt, enabling the agency to pursue collection efforts on their behalf.
  • Individuals who have exhausted their attempts to collect payment from a client can use this document to hand over the account to a legal firm. By doing so, they ensure that a professional entity takes over the collection process, which may lead to better results.
  • In situations where a company wants to minimize its involvement in debt collection, this form serves as a means to delegate responsibility. The assignment allows the company to focus on its core operations while the assignee manages the collection efforts.
  • For those dealing with multiple past-due accounts, utilizing this assignment form can streamline the collection process. By consolidating accounts under a single collection agency, the business can simplify management and potentially increase recovery rates.
  • Organizations that prefer to mitigate risks associated with debt collection may find this document useful. By assigning accounts to a collection agency, they can protect themselves from potential claims or disputes related to the collection process.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate when the debt is still being actively disputed by the debtor. In such cases, it may be more beneficial to resolve the dispute before assigning the account to a collection agency.
  • – If the creditor has a personal relationship with the debtor, using this assignment may strain that relationship further. It's advisable to consider alternative collection methods that maintain goodwill.
  • – In situations where the debtor has declared bankruptcy, this form should not be used. The assignment of the account may not be enforceable, and the creditor should seek legal advice on how to proceed under bankruptcy laws.
  • – For debts that are relatively small, the costs associated with assigning the account to a collection agency may outweigh the benefits. In such cases, it might be more practical to pursue collection through direct communication.
  • – If the creditor is not prepared to provide the necessary documentation or support for the collection agency, this form should not be utilized. Proper documentation is crucial for the agency to effectively pursue the debt.
