Business-to-business recovery
Turn an overdue Bay Area account into a documented recovery plan.
When a consulting engagement, software implementation, or recurring business service goes unpaid, the invoice may only tell part of the story. David Michael Commercial reviews the agreed scope, billing terms, approvals, and account history to help San Francisco-area creditors establish a practical starting point for recovery.
DMC supports commercial creditors in San Francisco and nearby Bay Area communities, including Oakland, Berkeley, and the Peninsula. If your customer has a remote team or an out-of-state billing office, our nationwide recovery capability helps keep follow-up focused on the business responsible for payment.
What helps us review a San Francisco area account.
These are examples of records that can help establish a commercial balance. Share what you have; DMC will review the account before recommending a recovery path.
Technology and professional-service invoices
Provide the signed agreement, statement of work, renewal terms, milestone approvals, invoices, and correspondence about scope changes or cancellation. These records help distinguish an unpaid approved balance from a disagreement about what was included.
Commercial property and facilities-service balances
Gather work orders, service schedules, completion records, purchase orders, and billing correspondence. Identify whether the property owner, tenant business, or management company contracted for the work and approved the charges.
