Debt Recovery and Collection in Georgia
A debt is commercially recoverable only if the legal claim, evidence and enforcement prospects point in the same direction. We review how the obligation arose, what has been paid, what can be proved and whether demand, settlement, litigation or enforcement is the sensible next move.
Documenting the claim
Review of contracts, invoices, transfers, acceptance records and correspondence.
Negotiation
A properly grounded demand, payment schedule and legally clear settlement terms.
Court and enforcement
Litigation strategy, interim measures where justified and subsequent enforcement steps.
How we handle debt recovery
- Commercial and contractual debt recovery
- Loan and monetary-obligation claims

- Assessment of interim protective measures
- Payment schedules and settlement agreements
- Coordination of enforcement after judgment
How we assess whether recovery is realistic
At the outset we check what document establishes the obligation, whether payment is due, whether limitation or counterclaim issues arise and who the correct defendant is. Only then do we decide whether the most effective route is a demand, negotiation, litigation or a combination of steps.
Interim measures and debtor assets
If there is a concrete risk that assets may be transferred or enforcement made more difficult, we assess whether interim measures are justified. Such measures are not automatic; the need for them must be supported by the facts and evidence of the particular case.
A judgment is not the end of the process
The practical objective for a creditor is payment, not simply a favourable judgment. We therefore consider possible enforcement, known debtor assets and the steps that can make recovery realistic from the beginning of the case.

Client Questions
What creditors often ask
What documents are needed to start debt recovery?
Do I always have to go to court?
No. In many matters, a properly drafted demand and focused negotiations produce a faster result. Litigation becomes necessary when the debtor denies the debt, refuses to cooperate or a settlement is no longer realistic.
Can the debtor’s property be frozen?
Where there is a genuine risk of disposal of assets or difficulty enforcing a future judgment, interim measures may be considered. The court must be given a specific legal and factual basis for the requested measure.
Can a foreign company recover a debt in Georgia?
Yes. For a foreign creditor we also review the contract’s governing law, jurisdiction, the form of foreign documents and the power of attorney required for representation in Georgia.
How long does debt recovery take?
There is no reliable answer without the file. Timing depends on whether the debtor admits the debt, whether settlement is possible, whether court proceedings are required and how readily enforceable assets can be identified.
Do you have an unpaid debt?
Send the contract, invoice, payment records and correspondence with the debtor. We will tell you which next step is realistic — a formal demand, negotiation, litigation or preparation for enforcement.
