Legal Question in Business Law in Georgia

Business Debt

I've got a customer who established a business account with my company and ran up a $20,000 debt now choses to ignore us and hasn't paid a dime. Is this illegal what recourse do you have here?

Re: Business Debt

It is illegal in the sense that is a breach of the applicable agreement. It is unlikely that it is illegal in the criminal sense. However, you would have a solid civil action under a breach of contract claim. I recommend having a local business attorney send the customer a demand letter and then file suit if there is no positive response.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
