Why Tech and Software Companies Struggle With Collections
Many technology businesses hesitate to pursue aggressive collections. But waiting too long only increases losses.

Your internal teams are focused on innovation, sales, and retention—not chasing overdue invoices.
Subscription models create a standoff: suspend service and risk churn, or keep providing and keep losing.
Large clients exploit leverage, pushing smaller vendors to the bottom of the payment queue.
Accounts payable departments may know how to stall, but we know how to move your invoice to the top of the stack, legally and quickly!
Attorney-Based Recovery That Tech Clients Can Trust
Unlike traditional agencies, Stevens & Ricci leads with legal pressure. Our team includes skilled attorney negotiators and paralegals with extensive experience recovering commercial debts in the tech sector. We understand your contracts, pricing models, and revenue dependencies.
We have a proven method to recover:
- Unpaid SaaS and licensing fees
- Subscription receivables
- Past-due support and maintenance contracts
- Project-based consulting fees
- Implementation or onboarding service balances
We only accept commercial claims of $10,000 or more. If your client isn’t responding to reminders, it’s time to escalate with legal weight behind you.
Why We’re Different from a Standard Collection Agency
| Traditional Agency | Stevens & Ricci (Attorney-Based) |
| Generic phone scripts | Real legal contact with enforceable pressure |
| Often ignored by tech clients | Attorneys compel fast resolution |
| Limited industry knowledge | We understand SaaS, licensing, and usage models |
| No escalation power | We pursue litigation if necessary |
Don’t waste your time trying to collect in-house or using phone-based collection teams that can be easily avoided. Our contingency fee structure and attorney focused approach is direct, efficient, and effective… or you don’t pay!

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Process
Do I need to send a Final Demand Letter before placing an account?
In many states, yes. A written final demand is required before legal action. You can meet this requirement in one of two ways:
- Send your own Final Demand Letter (we provide guidance and approved language).
- Have our legal team send an Attorney Demand Letter, which carries greater urgency and higher response rates.
What is the difference between a Final Demand Letter and an Attorney Demand Letter?
- Final Demand Letter (sent by you): Required in many states before litigation and serves as your official last warning.
- Attorney Demand Letter (sent by us): Carries legal weight, triggers urgency, and results in significantly higher response rates.
Which should I use?
Either option satisfies the “final notice” requirement, but attorney letters typically produce faster and more consistent results.
Are attorney letters effective for SaaS, staffing, or manufacturing disputes?
Extremely. These industries respond quickly to legal pressure because delays threaten operations, licensing, or customer retention.
What happens if the debtor contacts me directly after hiring Stevens & Ricci?
Do not negotiate with the debtor once the account is placed.
Reasons:
- You may unintentionally waive fees or interest
- It may weaken enforceability
- It may interfere with legal strategy
- Costs already incurred may become unrecoverable
Recommended response:
- “The matter is in the hands of Stevens & Ricci. Please contact them directly.”
If a check arrives:
- Do not deposit.
- Email or fax a copy to us so we can process it properly.
