Search for collection attorneys in your area and discuss it with them. If you have it in just one area, might be harder if it is all over.

If you find one attorney in your area you and that attorney can work out a simple program for the attorney to accept and process the cases, thus allowing a reasonable fee.

Re: Compliance third party collection by collector

There should not be any reason you cannot use small claims court in your collection activity, so long as the amount is not over $5,000.00. You simply have the third party file the lawsuit in their name, then fill out a form which states that you are their representative for that particular lawsuit.

If you need to establish a realtionship with an attorney, there are a number of ways of doing so. One such method is to simply look through the yellow pages, pick an attorney, call them and discuss your needs with them. You can also seek referals from your business associates, or you can always call your local bar association and speak to their lawyer referral section.
